Hi,
I'm running a search as follows via the Splunk Web UI ie. search index="xxxx" sourcetype="some_gateway" for a given day(24hrs) and it returns say >500,000 results, but the same search queried from the REST API stops early at 173,889 results every time. How can I increase this number and why is the UI query different?
Thanks
Events are different from results. I was also hitting a similar limit of 500,000 events in my REST API. Try appending | table * to your search and check the number of events you are getting.
THIS WORKED FOR ME - thanks so much karan1337 🙂
Are you trying to export the events as a csv file?
The search should definitely not be stopping. You could check search.log in the job's dispatch directory to see if there's message indicating why the job stopped.
No, trying to extract directly via the Http REST API. Not to worry I probably just need to limit the scope of my search to lower time intervals - say 1 hour at time.
Nope new limit at 400,000
adding the magic status_buckets = 300 parameter to the search create command seems to have allowed me to bust through the limit
