I'm trying to use the REST API to update a large number of alerts/saved searches across multiple environments. Specifically, I want to update to ensure that CSV's are attached to emails. I'm testing this in a lab on Splunk 8.0.2.
I've tried using both of these:
'curl -u splunk_user:splunk_pass -X POST -sk "https://splunk_ip:8089/services/saved/searches/(search title URL encoded)" -d action.email.sendcsv=1'
'curl -u splunk_user:splunk_pass -X POST -sk "https://splunk_ip:8089/servicesNS/(owner)/(app)/saved/searches/(search title URL encoded)" -d action.email.sendcsv=1'
However, what seems to be happening is that the alerts are being cloned into a report instead of being updated themselves. The name is identical, and the search is being copied over despite not being in the curl request.
Not sure what is going wrong with these API calls. They look correct by my reading of the API documentation, but I may be overlooking something.
