A user wants to create a workflow action that will retrieve a specific field value from an event and run a search in a new browser window
in the user's Splunk instance. What kind of workflow action should they create?
A Search workflow action is the appropriate choice when a user wants to retrieve a specific field value from an event and run a search in a new browser window within their Splunk instance (Option B). This type of workflow action allows users to define a search that utilizes field values from selected events as parameters, enabling more detailed investigation or context-specific analysis based on the original search results.
How could the following syntax for the chart command be rewritten to remove the OTHER category? (select all that apply)
In Splunk, when using the chart command, the useother parameter can be set to false (f) to remove the 'OTHER' category, which is a bucket that Splunk uses to aggregate low-cardinality groups into a single group to simplify visualization. Here's how the options break down:
A) | chart count over CurrentStanding by Action useother=f This command correctly sets the useother parameter to false, which would prevent the 'OTHER' category from being displayed in the resulting visualization.
B) | chart count over CurrentStanding by Action usenull=f useother=t This command has useother set to true (t), which means the 'OTHER' category would still be included, so this is not a correct option.
C) | chart count over CurrentStanding by Action limit=10 useother=f Similar to option A, this command also sets useother to false, additionally imposing a limit to the top 10 results, which is a way to control the granularity of the chart but also to remove the 'OTHER' category.
D) | chart count over CurrentStanding by Action limit-10 This command has a syntax error (limit-10 should be limit=10) and does not include the useother=f clause. Therefore, it would not remove the 'OTHER' category, making it incorrect.
The correct answers to rewrite the syntax to remove the 'OTHER' category are options A and C, which explicitly set useother=f.
Consider the following search:
index=web sourcetype=access_corabined
The log shows several events that share the same jsesszonid value (SD462K101O2F267). View the events as a group.
From the following list, which search groups events by jSSESSIONID?
What is the correct syntax to find events associated with a tag?
Here is an example of how you can use the tag command in a search:
index=main sourcetype=access_combined | tag status_code
You can also use the tag command with a specific tag value to find events associated with that tag. For example, the following search finds all events where the status code is tagged with success:
index=main sourcetype=access_combined | tag status_code | search tag::status_code=success
What commands can be used to group events from one or more data sources?
