Splunk Search

Why am I unable to search from "MAIN" index?

Hello,

I have installed an App, and the data in APP is written to "MAIN" index. When I am search for DATA from the APP, it works fine. Below is the my search query
index="main" source=jira

However, when I search for the same data from Search App, the data is not visible, and hence when I try to create a dashboard, it is not functional.

How can I make data searchable from Search App and from the App. Please advise.

Hi @sidtalup27m,

probably in your search there's something (an eventtype, or a field) that isn't share as global, so you don't see outside the App.

Ciao.

Hi @sidtalup27 ,

What are the searches that run in the app and don't outside?

please share them.

If there are fields or eventtypes, you have to change the permissions on these objects.

Ciao.
