How to delete search history?

Hello community,

Can anyone advise if it's possible to delete my search history? I'd like to delete old searches that serve no value e.g., those that returned no results, failed (i.e., were test searches while learning) or are duplicates etc.

I've searched helps docs and forums without luck. 

Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi @pipg,

see this answer https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-clear-search-history/m-p/392454/highlight/true

in few words, in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/<your_user>/<your_app>/history you can find a csv with your history.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
