Creating a form for searching web activity

Presenting users with dashboards is a great way to visualize data, as we have seen. However, often, people like to slice n dice data in many different ways, and to do this, we need to make our dashboards more interactive. We can do this using the dashboard forms functionality of Splunk, which allows users to filter dashboard visualizations and data based upon the criteria that are important to them.

This recipe will build on the tabular Visitor Monitoring dashboard you created in the previous recipe to allow for granular filtering of the tabulated results.
