Monitoring Splunk

Create a report / alert on dashboard usage

I have a simple dashboard that a user can enter an email address and get results of a search. I was wondering if there is a way each day to report who used the dashboard and what address they searched.

Hey

Yes just search the index=_audit for the search that feeds the panels you are looking for.

You can then collect the splunk user who "ordered" that search and the exact search string that was executed, so you can retrieve the addresses searched
