Hi,

I have requirement where I have to monitor a directory containing files whose creation time is no longer than 15 minutes.

I have to a get list of files every time with creation time so I can generate alerts based on that.

Hi ramehlpatel,

have a look at this app https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/2776/ which provides a way to get the information you asked for.

cheers, MuS
