Hello,

Is there a way to validate the fields used in the datamodel by how compliant they are with the current setup?
I am trying to validate and fix data models to receive optimum results in the Splunk ES.

Any tips regarding the issue will be appreciated,
Thanks

Would this help? https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ES/5.2.2/Admin/Dashboardrequirements

Also, for e.g. You can use | from datamodel "Authentication.Authentication" | fieldsummary for Authentication datamodel to check if all the datamodel fields are mapped and check the valued to see if they are related to your datasource.
