Index Not Reporting in Splunk Query

Hi Team,

I would like to create a saved search in such a way that if any of the index is not reporting in Splunk for more than an hour then it should trigger an email with the index name information in it along with the last event came from that index.

Is there any query available so that i can schedule the same.

Try this.

| tstats latest(_time) as last_time, latest(_raw) as last_event by index earliest=-2h
| where (now()-last_time) > 3600

Hi, @anandhalagarasan16021988
This query is aim to check sources has not been updated more than an hour.
you can change types(sources, hosts)

or

| tstats summariesonly=t  count where index=index1 OR index=index2 by index _time span=1h
| timechart cont=f count by index
| where _time <= relative_time(now(),"-1h")

This query also checks for an index that has not been updated.
