Splunk Search

What capabilities are required for the "sendemail" search command?

The ability for many things in Splunk is controlled by capabilities applied to roles/users. In order for a user to utilize the "sendemail" command, what capabilities are necessary for their role to possess?

If there is a chart which contains search commands and the required capabilities that would suffice as well.

Hi @athoma31,

All users can access sendemail from all apps. And this applies to most of the internal commands.

For proof check command permission here - Settings > Advanced Search > Search Commands > Search for "sendemail" > Permissions.

Hope this helps!!!

The only requirement is that you configure Settings -> Server settings -> Email settings.
