Splunk Search

crawl search command doesn't exist on Splunk 7.0.2

when executing "| crawl root=/home/bob", I got below error:

Error in 'crawl' command: Cannot find program 'crawl' or script 'crawl'.

The latest Splunk version in the doc for this command is 6.6.5. Does this mean that this command has been removed? If so, why? If not, how to use it on 7.0.2? Thanks.

Thanks Chris. I received the same feedback from Laura Stewart - Sr Staff Technical Writer for the search command online doc.
