Is there any way we can add some filter in subsearch savedsearch so that we wont skip any data/records as its limiting the events.
e.g I am using savedsearch under join command, but its limiting the data.


Thanks in Advance.

Hi

you can try to limit result of subsearch by where, stats, dedup etc, but usually this leads to timeout issue, which is actually same issue as you many results. 

The better way is to avoid subsearch like joins with stats etc. There are many examples on answers and great presentations on .conf like https://conf.splunk.com/files/2019/slides/FNC2751.pdf
