Really? I always thought it was during Searching.

I thought it was the Indexing phase.

Wait, are you sure it's not the Inputs phase?

100% agree, Parsing phase all the way!
TI

It's definitely the Parsing phase!
ST

I definitely recall something about the parsing phase being important for extractions, so I’m leaning towards that option.

I feel like it might be the inputs phase, but that doesn't seem right.
ZA

I remember practicing a question about props.conf, and I think it was related to the indexing phase.

I think indexed extractions happen during the parsing phase, but I'm not completely sure.
AN

I'm a bit confused on this one. I'll need to review the Splunk documentation to refresh my memory on the different phases and where props.conf comes into play.
CI
Ciara 12 months ago
I'm pretty sure indexed extractions happen during the Indexing phase, when Splunk is processing the data and building the search index. But I'll double-check my notes to be sure.

Okay, let me see... I know props.conf is used for configuring how Splunk handles different data sources, so it's probably not in the Inputs phase. Parsing and Indexing seem more likely.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the different phases of the Splunk data processing pipeline.

If you don't know the Indexing phase, you might as well hand in your Splunk certification and call it a day. Just sayin'.

The Indexing phase, hands down. Unless you're a Splunk newbie, this one's a no-brainer!
AN

I'm going with the Indexing phase on this one. Anything else would just be plain wrong, wouldn't it?
RO
Rosendo 1 year ago
That makes sense, but I still think it's in the Indexing phase because that's where the data gets stored for faster searching.
MA

I see, but I still think it's in the Parsing phase because that's where the data gets transformed.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be in the Inputs phase.
RO

I disagree, I believe it happens in the Indexing phase.

I think indexed extractions occur in the Parsing phase.

Nah, nah, it's definitely the Inputs phase. That's where we feed Splunk the good stuff, you know?

No, actually indexed extractions occur in the Parsing phase.

I think you're right, it does happen in the Inputs phase.

C'mon, it's got to be the Parsing phase. That's where Splunk makes sense of all that raw data, am I right?

That's right, the Parsing phase is where Splunk interprets the raw data and extracts fields for indexing.

Yes, you're correct! Indexed extractions in props.conf actually occur during the Parsing phase.
