Creating a customized app template

Hi folks,

is there a way to build my own app template? There are two templates available out-of-the-box: sample app and barebone. I want to create my own template that has some customization in place (like a customized logo etc.).

Thanks!

Regards,
Felix

You must create firstly an application that you want it to be your customize app template , and add all the customization that you want that it has .

In splunk web go to "$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps" folder , copy your app directory and paste it in "$SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/app_templates" folder .

After doing this restart splunk and go to Apps > Manage Apps > create app Add new panel you will see in drop down template your template app.

For more information about app configurations see Splunk-6.1.1-Developing Views and Apps for Splunk Web
