Hi,

Not exactly what you're after but you can set the maximum time window for a search using srchTimeWin = <time_in_seconds> in authorize.conf.

For example, if you didn't want anyone with the simple_user role to be able to search a timeframe over a year then you would add the following:

[role_simple_user]
srchTimeWin = 31536000

Note that the stanza title is in the format role_<role_name>.

Hope this helps.

You're welcome.

Unfortunately I am not aware of an configuration in Splunk that allows you to do that.

You can remove it from dashboards, but not from searches / reports.
