Splunk Search

Collect command with federated searches

I have a use case where I'm trying to collect events from a federated search. I can run and search results using the federated index, but when I try to add a collect command to collect the results to a local index I get the following error: "No results to summary index." The search works but automatically returns no results when I try to collect.

I've leveraged a workaround by using a makeresults with dummy data followed by an append with a subsearch, that contains my federated search and that collects fine, but now I'm limited by subsearch constraints. Anyone run into this issue?

Workaround:

 

| makeresults
| eval test="a"
| fields - _time
| append
[ index=federated:testindex | head 1 ]
| collect index=mysummaryindex
