What are the four types of event actions?
The four types of event actions in Splunk are eval, link, change, and clear. These actions are used in dashboards to interact with or manipulate event data based on user inputs.
What is a performance improvement technique unique to dashboards?
Report acceleration pre-computes and stores results from searches, improving the performance of dashboards that display those reports by retrieving pre-computed data instead of running a full search each time.
Repeating JSON data structures within one event will be extracted as what type of fields?
When Splunk encounters repeating JSON data structures in an event, they are extracted as multivalue fields. These allow multiple values to be stored under a single field, which is common with arrays in JSON data.
How is a multivalue field treated from product="a, b, c, d"?
The makemv command with delim=',' is used to split a multivalue field like product='a, b, c, d' into separate values, making it easier to manipulate each value individually.
Which search generates a field with a value of "hello"?
To generate a field with a value of 'hello', use the search | makeresults | eval field='hello'. This creates a new field with the specified value in the search results.
