Splunk Search

Single query to an external REST API

JerryLives

I am working on an app that will have an interactive UI where you could input a hash value and afterwards the app would gather data through a REST API and return it to a Splunk index so it can later be searched and visualized.
I was looking at the Splunk Add-on Builder, but couldn't manage to find if there is an easy way to make it work only once, as there is only an option to run it in specific intervals.
Thank you.
