This should have all the information you want:

index=_internal host=* source=*scheduler.log

Best bet, s.o.s (Splunk On Splunk Application)

Built in: From you splunk web, upper right hand corner, click on - Activity > System Activity > Scheduler > Scheduler Activity by Saved search. This should give you any & all the information you need.

Also, hit the following endpoints:

|rest /services/alerts/alert_actions
|rest /services/alerts/fired_alerts
|rest /services/saved/searches

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Raghav
