Launching Splunk with Permalinks
Permalinks are URLs with embedded search parameters. They open the splunkweb UI and run a specific search to display the results.
Parameters
- num
The number of search results to display per page.
- q
The Splunk search terms. The syntax is the same used in the Splunk box. Use "%20" for spaces. URL encoding - "%3A" instead of ":" - is optional but not required.
Unsupported Parameters
URLs that appear in your browser when using the splunkweb interface may contain other parameters, such as "eventspage," but these are not yet supported in permalinks. They will be ignored.
Example
http:demo.splunk.com/?events/?num=15&q=sourcetype::testdata%20milford
http:demo.splunk.com/?events/?num=15&q=sourcetype%3A%3Atestdata%20milford
