Hi all,

Am unable to provide a user with access to 'Alert Actions' under Splunk setting for the user to view the 'Log Events' related to the custom alerts created.
As I cannot confirm the exact capability which can give access for the same.

Can somebody please help.
I am using the splunk version 7.2.9

Thanks
