How to export/import saved searches REST API

mforgues — Thu, 07 Apr 2022 15:08:06 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to found a way to export through the REST API my saved searches.

Running the following command seems to generate the correct export :

curl -k -u admin:changeme https : //localhost:8089/servicesNS/ocs/-/saved/searches > saved_searches

Now for the tricky part, I'm trying to adjust the file to import it back to another server.

Could you help me determine if this is possible?

Thanks,

Mathieu

You could use http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/RESTAPI/RESTapps#apps.2Flocal.2F.7Bname.7D.2Fpackage to package the app and install it on another server as any other app. Between those steps you can change savedsearches.conf in the archive as you need.

curl -k -u admin:pass https://[Splunk Host]:[Management Port]/services/apps/local/{name}/package

https://[Splunk Host]:[Management Port]/static/app-packages/{name}.spl

Did the job 🙂

Thanks,

Mathieu

Is there any new way how to do it with recent Splunk version?
