User selective Logo on PDF Report

fab73 — Fri, 10 Feb 2017 14:53:56 GMT

I need to customize different logo (.png) for different users in the Header of the PDF attached. Searching in Splunk Answers I did not find any possibility to do it. Is there any new feature in Splunk 6.4? Did some one tried to do the same? How? Thanks in advance for any commet!

Hi fab73,
you can easily hide the logo on pdf footer (see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.2/Admin/Alertactionsconf):

reportIncludeSplunkLogo = [1|0]
     * Specify whether to include a Splunk logo in Integrated PDF Rendering
     * Defaults to 1 (true)

Instead to change this logo it isn't so easy: the only way is to modify the Python script that generates pdf, but I don't know how to help you.
Every way, you can find a useful workaround at http://blogs.splunk.com/2014/08/05/pdf-printing-and-logos/

If instead you want to modify the header logo, inserting a different one for each user groups, you could create different versions of the same dashboards for each group with own logo in an html header and schedule each dashboard for each user group.

Bye.
Giuseppe

I've got one dashboard for each user. "with own logo in an html header" this is a nice and simple solution Giuseppe, Thanks a lot, I was not thinking this way....
