A service was set up to measure datastore free space usage, overprovisioning, and read and write activity. The thresholds per entity work fine, and many entities are displayed. The aggregated threshold for the KPIs, however, shows only the values of the top entity. According to the manual, the aggregated threshold should display the average of all entities. Is there a setting that I am not using correctly?

Hey people, I want to find out the total number of hours that elapsed from the last event raised.   This is what I was doing previously:     | stats latest(_time) as last_log_time | eval timeElapsedSinceLastLog=tostring(now() - last_log_time) | fieldformat timeElapsedSinceLastLog = strftime(timeElapsedSinceLastLog, "%H:%M:%S") |fields timeElapsedSinceLastLog         this gives me   But it has been more than a week, since the last event raised   I am also happy, if I could get number of days elapsed with time(if days < 1) as well.

Hello, apologies if this was stated previously. I have multiple calls - each RequestID with a RequestReceive and ResponseTransmit. I am trying to find the difference between the two timestamps below. The difference of ResponseTransmit timestamp and RequestReceive timestamp. Then put that into a stats command ordered by clientPathURI and then the difference between the timestamps. Any assistance is much appreciated!   { [-]    RequestID: b74fab20-9a7b-11ed-bd70-c503548afa99    clientPathURI: signup    level: Info    logEventType: ResponseTransmit    timestamp: 2023-01-22T12:43:57.547-05:00 }   { [-]    RequestID: b74fab20-9a7b-11ed-bd70-c503548afa99    clientPathURI: signup    }    level: Info    logEventType: RequestReceive    timestamp: 2023-01-22T12:43:57.496-05:00 }

Hello everyone,  I have been working on a Chrome/Edge extension to enable some enhancements in the Splunk SPL search box. Initially, my goal was to enable the ability to toggle comments on and off using Ctrl+/, which is common in most code editors, but I also added other features; like the ability to cut lines using Ctrl+x or toggle showing line numbers with Ctrl+l. You can check out the extension at github. There I provide detailed installation instructions.  I am looking forward to any feedback, questions or suggestions. Thanks, Julio

Hello! I am a user and I have access to https://myorg.splunkcloud.com/en-US/app/myapp/search   I would like to see: 1) what fields and tables I can query (I have access to) 2) what data modelling exists (how tables relate and are joined) 3) some unique values of some of these fields   If I can run SQL, it would be great for example! Otherwise, what is the proper way? My goal is to run a query to return values of some fields applying some filters, the typical stuff!   Thanks!
