How to see Alert search results in RSS feed

coresystems_scp — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 12:15:20 GMT

Hi,

I have created a Search that will display be some data, like number of sold license in the last 24 hours.
When running the search I can see the results in Splunk like this
ProductA 24
ProductB 10

But with RSS I don't see any search results, I just see that the query was running.

How can I see the search results in the RSS feed?

Thanks

Unfortunately there is currently no functionality for including search results in the RSS feed. This would be a great feature, so you should consider filing an ER for it.

Hi,

I have successfully retrieved search results via RSS though indirectly. The steps for the same are as follows.

1) Extract RSS entry from RSS feed.
2) Extract the alert details and hence job name from RSS entry
3) Use REST API with this job name as input to get job results export in any format like rss, xml, json etc

Let me know if there are any queries.
