Splunk UI query start and end time

[eranhauser]

How can one add to the result of a Splunk query running on Splunk UI the time span i.e. the values one can put in earliest_time and latest_time (the earliest and latest time are coming only from the drop down of the time span in Splunk UI)

Hi @eranhauser ... i am sorry, i am unable to understand your query.. 

you are running a search.. Would you like to know exactly when the SPL started to run and exactly when the SPL finished running? or you want to include these values inside the search itself?

Did you check the "Inspect Job" ?!?!

[eranhauser]

I am going to run my query using a scheduler so I want to record in each event the time span the query used to capture that event

[inventsekar]

Please run that scheduled search query and then check the "inspect job".. you will get more than you wanted. thanks. 

[eranhauser]

I need these times in the event itself

[inventsekar]

then you should invent the timemachine, get the results, go back in time and update the results inside the event itself. <bootstrap paradox>
