How Splunk Works

literals.conf

This documentation does not apply to the most recent version of Splunk. Click here for the latest version.

literals.conf

literals.conf controls what literal text displays and how literal text is displayed in SplunkWeb. EuroDate formatting is configured here.

literals.conf.spec

# This file contains possible attribute/value pairs for configuring externalized strings in 
# literals.conf.
#
# There is a literals.conf in the default bundle.  To set custom configurations, place a
# literals.conf in your own custom bundle directory.
#
# For help creating a bundle directory, or to learn more about bundles (including bundle precedence)
# please see the documentation located at http://www.splunk.com/doc/latest/admin/bundleconfig.
#
# For the full list of all literals that can be overridden, check out
# $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/bundles/default/literals.conf.

# In general, strings in the [ui] stanza can be changed if you follow these guidelines.
# NOTE: Do not add or remove any occurrences of "%s", or reorder their positions.

SEARCH_TERM_TIME_FORMAT = %m/%d/%Y:%H:%M:%S
	* Used for starttime:: and endtime:: searchterms, across all of SplunkWeb. 
	* IMPORTANT: Swap %m and %d for European date formats. 
	* In general, however the full range of format strings is not supported, and other changes or 
	omissions may cause significant problems in the UI.
SEARCH_RESULTS_TIME_FORMAT = %m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S
	* This is the general format string for events and timeline.
	* For the search results themselves, Splunk replaces four-digit %Y with two-digit %y.
	* When changing or swapping values, see above IMPORTANT note above.
