Plan searches for future events

[The_dark_side_o]

Hello everybody,

Is there a configuration file that an application(written on my own) can edit to plan searches? What I need is to plan searches for retrieving event coming in the future. And, if this file exist, it is possible to set searches to start automatically?

savedsearches.conf is where you can define and schedule searches. http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Savedsearchesconf
