Hallo,

maybe try this

index=_audit action="search" search="*" NOT user="splunk-system-user" savedsearch_name="" NOT search="\'|history*" NOT search="\'typeahead*" | timechart span=1m count by host

But take care about the span 1m is maybe to much and could end in "The specified span would result in too many (>50000) rows."

Pls note this will exclude saved searches

You can also exculde summary searches by adding NOT search="'summarize*"

Kind Regards
