Splunk Search

How do you list Index, sourcetype and source using the REST command?

Hi,

I am working to list all the index with underlying sourcetypes and sources in it.

For which I am currently using the following command to run All Time

| tstats values(source) as source where index = * by index, sourcetype

The problem is that I have to run this search in the all time range, which is a heavy load and slow too.

Is there any |rest command to get results in much faster or any other command where I don't have to run search with an all time duration?

Thanks in advance.

Did you try with summariesonly?

 | tstats `summariesonly` values(source) as source where index = * groupby index, sourcetype

Hi,
cannot find such macro ´summariesonly´.

Ran this search though
| tstats summariesonly=true values(source) as source where index = * groupby index, sourcetype

However, the problem is the same, that I have to run it all time to get all results.
Looking for more like a rest command, so can run for last 15 mins, etc.

´summariesonly´ is in SA-Utils, but same as what you have now. tstats does support the search to run for last 15mins/60 mins, if that helps.

not sure if there is a direct rest api. One option would be to pull all indexes using rest and then use that on tstats, perhaps?

|rest /services/data/indexes | table title

Don't know why, but I have to select "all time" to get all index, sourcetype and source mapping using tstats command
