1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
causing display of a set of events within a table format that includes:
one or more columns, each column corresponding to an event attribute, and
a plurality of rows forming a plurality of cells with the one or more columns, each row of the plurality of rows corresponding to an event of the set of events, wherein a particular cell in a particular row of the plurality of rows is in a particular column of the one or more columns, the particular cell comprises one or more data items of the event corresponding to the row, and the one or more data items in the particular cell correspond to the event attribute of the particular column;
in response to receiving a user selection of the particular cell of the plurality of cells in the table format, causing display of a plurality of options corresponding to the particular cell, wherein each option corresponds with a command for inclusion in a search query for searching the set of events within the table format; and
in response to receiving a user selection of a first option of the plurality of options corresponding to the particular cell in the table format, generating one or more search commands, based on the first option, for searching the set of events within the table format.
