Hi Splunk Team
I see this message on my entire datamodel, how can I fix it?
"This object has no explicit index constraint. Consider adding one for better performance."
How can fix it
Thanks

Edit the data model and add "index=foo" (change "foo" to the index that contains data relevant to the DM) to the first constraint.
