Getting Data In

pushing data to new csv

I have a csv where there are 5 columns and the number of rows is 1000. I have indexed that csv as continuous monitoring. If a new row is added into the same csv it should be automatically pushed to new csv which I have created in Splunk. this can be done based on the any calculation. Is this possible?

Hikavyamohan,
you have a continuous monitoring, so the new row is read and indexed by Splunk, to add this row to your csv you have two choices:

  • override the csv with all the results of your search,
  • add only the new row.

The first choice is the easiest because you have to run your search and use the command outputlookup at the end (see https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.3.2/SearchReference/Outputlookup ).

The second requires that you filter the results of your search using the existing csv.

Ciao.
