How to use Splunk IAI

As a Splunk IAI user, you can use Splunk IAI to view and act on the data in your industrial environment. You can browse the full structure of assets in your organization and view what metrics are available for them. If your IAI admin has configured alerts when metrics cross certain thresholds, you can respond to texts or email alerts by accessing monitor views to view your metrics in meaningful contexts, or analyze and compare metrics in time series charts.
