How do you define the "use" of an app? Just a search? What about index-time field extractions defined by an app? Use of a lookup file defined in one app by a search in another app? It can get even more complex than that so more information is needed.

Hi @anil15694,

to have the list of the apps in a Splunk server, you can run the following search:

| rest /services/apps/local

To have the use of each apps is more complicated:

using this search, you can have all the events containing the names of the apps

index=_internal [ | rest /services/apps/local | rename title AS query | fields query ]

so you can start from it to filter your events and find the events you need (e.g. error, dashboard runs, etc...).

Ciao.
