How to get data through REST API into SPLUNK APP

Hi

We have to retrieve DATA through REST API and then display the data in the dashboard.

After reading documents, the add-on is an easy method to get data into Splunk. But no dashboard for add-on.

Can I combine the add-on into APP? Add-on: get data, APP: display the data?

 

Regards

Emily

Hi,

The best way is to create a separate app for dashboards and deploy it in only search heads.And you can deploy your addon in indexers for parsing activity.
