You can then set up a real-time search for that event and trigger an alert when it is found.</P> Tue, 04 Mar 2014 12:59:46 GMT richgalloway 2014-03-04T12:59:46Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Alerting/Programmatically-generate-an-alert/m-p/173113#M2839 <P>Hello,</P> <P>As the title states I would like to know if it is possible to generate programmatically an alert and then inject it into Splunk. Then Splunk would act based on this alert by sending an email, or writing to the syslog etc.</P> <P>Personally I would image this is something that can be obtained using the Splunk Rest API</P> <P>I would be interested for any direction towards obtaining this goal. </P> Tue, 04 Mar 2014 12:54:58 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Alerting/Programmatically-generate-an-alert/m-p/173113#M2839 leustean 2014-03-04T12:54:58Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Alerting/Programmatically-generate-an-alert/m-p/173114#M2840 <P>You can programmatically insert an event into Splunk.
