This really depends on your requirements. You may want to vary the settings until you find the one that meets your needs. This may help you: https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/Input-settings-for-Microsoft-Office-365-Reporting-Add-on-for/m-p/437206#M53764 Also from the App: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3720/#/details Specify the Query window size (minutes). When Continuously Monitor is selected, each time this input runs a start date is calculated for the Office 365 API query. The end date for the Office 365 API query will be the calculated start date plus the number of minutes specified by this parameter. For example, if the calculated start date is 2018-01-01T00:00:00 (midnight on January 1, 2018), the end date for the query will be 2018-01-01T00:01:00 (one hour after midnight) if the query window size is 60 minutes. Specify the Delay throttle (minutes). Microsoft may delay trace events up to 24 hours and events are not guaranteed to be sequential during this delay ( reference ). This parameter specifies how close to "now" the end date for a query may be (where "now" is the time that the input runs). Continuing from the example above, if "now" is 2018-01-01T00:02:00 (two minutes after midnight) and the delay throttle is 60 minutes, the input will exit because the end date for the query is only 1 minute away from "now". Each time the input runs, the input will exit and do nothing until the end date is at least 60 minutes away from "now".
