User Maintained Lists

andrewkenth · ‎01-13-2014

Is there a way that I can have user maintain a list of values and then drive searches off said lists that does not involve importing a new sourcetype? Some of the searches used by the user are fairly complex and allowing the users to edit the normal and entire search is not advisable.

What are some recommendations for addressing this?

Thanks!

You could store your lists in lookups, and use the Sideview Utils Lookup Updater to maintain them.

If the number of values is small you may also use macros and give certain roles permission to edit their values.
