Splunk Search

Can you skip the first x rows returned in a search?

Hi,

If I have a query which returns 100 rows I'd like to be able to only get rows 11-100 shown (and if 200 only rows 11-200)

I have looked for an offset command similar to head or tail but I can't see one. Do you know how I could go about this?

Thanks

hi @ewanbrown

just add this end of your query : |streamstats count as result |where result >10
