Hi everyone!


I'm currently preparing for the Splunk Cloud Certified Admin (SPLK-1005) exam and wanted to ask — are there any reliable and up-to-date practice tests available? I'd really appreciate suggestions on where to find practice questions or mock exams that match the actual test format. Any tips or recommended resources would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

Hi @CooperRay 

For practicing and taking mock tests before your Splunk 1005 exam, here are some recommended sites and resources:

Splunk Cloud Certified Admin Exam Blueprint - https://www.splunk.com/en_us/pdfs/training/splunk-test-blueprint-cloud-admin.pdf - This has a great breakdown of the kind of things which will be asked - showing the split of marks available against various areas. 
 
Splunk Cloud Certified Admin Track - https://www.splunk.com/en_us/pdfs/training/splunk-core-certified-consultant-track.pdf - This shows the pre-reqs and further info about what to expect and what is required.

You can also find an overview of the areas covered at https://www.splunk.com/en_us/pdfs/training/splunk-cloud-certified-admin-track.pdf
 
You can also check out the Splunk YouTube for some useful videos that might help! http://splk.it/How-To
 
There are no Splunk-provided sample exam questions for this exam, but hopefully the above info helps!

 

Please be wary of external website offering sample questions, these come with a number of complications due to being potentially incorrect questions/answers (you dont want to learn the wrong answers by copying someone elses homework!) but also this would be a breach of the Exam Terms and Conditions (see section 4.5) and could mean revocation of your certification.

Lastly, good luck!
