what exactly do you mean by CSV delivery of a view/dashboard? If a view has multiple charts what do you want delivered?

hello,

i have only data table in my view. For pdf delivery i have this configuration :

[_ScheduledView__VIEW1]
action.email = 1
action.email.pdfview = VIEW1
action.email.sendpdf = 1
action.email.to = toto@toto.com
action.email.ttl = 10
cron_schedule = 10 1 8 * *
description = scheduled search for view name=VIEW1
dispatch.earliest_time = 1
dispatch.latest_time = 2
enableSched = 1
is_visible = 0
search = | noop

My question : is it possible to do the same thing for csv, 1 scheduling for 1 mail with all csv of the data table present in my view?

Actually i added outputcsv in the search cmd of view1, when the pdf is send the csv are generated in $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/splunk.
And i have a crontab script for send the csv.

Regards,
Wilfrid

Unfortunately you cannot email all the CSV results in a view. The closest you can get to it is to schedule each of the searches that make up the view and email each of the resulting CSVs separately - you probably know this and it might not be what you want.
