Hi Splunk Community,
I don't want to get technical on this, but I have an alert that I would like to run a .cmd file from when it triggers. This .cmd runs a Splunk CLI script that generates a report which correlates to the alert.
I am assuming that Splunk only recognizes .sh files within the C:\Program Files\Splunk\bin\scripts directory. Therefore, is there an easy way to execute a .cmd file with a .sh script?
Thank you!
Daniel

If you are running Splunk on Windows, Splunk will run .bat scripts instead of .sh scripts.
So just write a .bat script that launches whatever you like!

All you should need to do is to put the full path to the script in the right box of the alert actions.

I was able to successfully create the .bat file. But Splunk still does not run the script. Do I have to add an additional command to run the .bat file in the script field of the alert?
