Looking for alternatives to outputcsv in a Cloud deployment

[tomapatan]

Hi,

Can someone recommend a way to save the results of a Splunk search locally or to shared drive? We`re using a hybrid deployment (Cloud and Enterprise), but the data we require is available in Cloud only.

Many thanks,

Toma

With Cloud you don't have local access to the machines at the OS level and can't manipulate local files (and won't be able to push any apps that try to do so, they will fail vetting). So your only option is as @Gr0und_Z3r0 pointed out to use API from remote to spawn a search and then retrieve results.

Depending on the size of your output you could also try to send results via email action.

Hi @tomapatan 

You can use the REST API services of Splunk to export the data as CSV.
