hi @rrovers What version of Splunk did you hit this bug with long search name and you couldn't view the search

@burwell, this was around the time we migrated to splunk 9 but I think this was still in splunk version 8.x.x.

You need to modify schedule search permission who is generating this result, if you don't have permission then you need to ask Splunk Admin.

I have granted read/write permission to everyone, but others are still not able to open the result link.

only the admin can open it

I suspect that you don't have permission to view that alert in splunk.
