Splunk MINT SDK for iOS (Legacy)

Splunk MINT SDK for iOS Developer Guide

Splunk MINT is no longer available for purchase as of January 29, 2021. Customers who have already been paying to ingest and process MINT data in Splunk Enterprise will continue to receive support until December 31, 2021, which is End of Life for all MINT products: App, Web Service (Management Console), SDK and Add-On.

Create timers

To track internal processes in your mobile app, you can create a high-precision timer that runs once and records the elapsed time, in nanoseconds.

Use the following methods to work with timers:

  • To start a timer, use the startTimerWithName: method.
  • To stop a timer, use the stopTimerWithId: method.


To find the elapsed time, run a search in Splunk Enterprise on the timer name, for example:

tag=mint timerName="Timer1"

The search results display the elapsed time in nanoseconds:

   . . .
   device: x86_64
   elapsedTime: 18446744073707583000
   extraData: { }
   . . .
