Hi,

I am using Splunk Enterprise Version 6.6.6v.

Can I set the schedule setting in seconds during savedsearch configuration?

Thanks.

No, the minimum granularity is minutes.

Is there any evidence that this is not true?

Check the corresponding doc:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Savedsearchesconf

It does not explicitly state seconds are impossible, but it states the format for crown schedules and therefore what is possible.

Its not possible using cron scheduler because splunk considers cron format and the least time modifier in cron format is minutes .

Another work around is specifying * * * * * so that the it keeps running or setting the alert time to real time

Happy splunking !!

The only evidence I can say is referring to https://crontab.guru/

You can find about the time modifiers supported by a cron scheduler .

Happy Splunking !!

Thanks!

If so, is it impossible to set the seconds in Splunk in any other way?
