Splunk Enterprise version 7.2 is no longer supported as of April 30, 2021. See the Splunk Software Support Policy for details. For information about upgrading to a supported version, see How to upgrade Splunk Enterprise.
This documentation does not apply to the most recent version of Splunk® Enterprise.
For documentation on the most recent version, go to the latest release.
Deployment endpoint descriptions
Manage deployment servers and clients.
A deployment server configures a deployment client. Deployment clients and servers can reside on separate, distributed, Splunk instances or can reside on the same instance.
Usage details
Review ACL information for an endpoint
To check Access Control List (ACL) properties for an endpoint, append /acl to the path. For more information see Access Control List in the REST API User Manual.
Authentication and Authorization
Username and password authentication is required for access to endpoints and REST operations.
Splunk users must have role and/or capability-based authorization to use REST endpoints. Users with an administrative role, such as admin, can access authorization information in Splunk Web. To view the roles assigned to a user, select Settings > Access controls and click Users. To determine the capabilities assigned to a role, select Settings > Access controls and click Roles.
App and user context
Typically, knowledge objects, such as saved searches or event types, have an app/user context that is the namespace. For more information about specifying a namespace, see Namespace in the REST API User Manual.
Splunk Cloud limitations
If you have a managed Splunk Cloud deployment with search head clustering and index clustering, the REST API supports access to the search head only. You can use the REST API to interact with the search head in your deployment. Using the REST API to access any other cluster member nodes is not supported. For example, deployment endpoints are not applicable to Splunk Cloud deployments.
See Using the REST API in Splunk Cloud in the the Splunk REST API Tutorials for more information.

POST
Update {name} app distribution information.
Usage details
When continueMatching is true, matching is in the order in which server classes are defined.
The whitelist setting indicates a filtering strategy that includes a subset.
- Items are not considered to match the server class by default.
- Items that match any whitelist entry, and do not match any blacklist entry, are considered to match the server class.
- Items that match any blacklist entry are not considered to match the server class, regardless of whitelist.
The blacklist setting indicates a filtering strategy that excludes a subset.
- Items are considered to match the server class by default.
- Items that match any blacklist entry, and do not match any whitelist entry, are considered to not match the server class.
- Items that match any whitelist entry are considered to match the server class.
That is,
whitelist: default no-match -> whitelists enable -> blacklists disable
blacklist: default match -> blacklists disable-> whitelists enable
If you specify whitelist at the global level, and then specify blacklist for an individual server class, the setting becomes blacklist for that server class, and you have to provide another filter in that server class definition to replace the one you overrode.
Request parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| blacklist.* | String | List of hosts to exclude when mapping application to a server class. For each blacklist, replace the wildcard (*) with an ordinal number to specify additional blacklists. Filter ordinals must start at 0 and be consecutive. | |
| continueMatching | Boolean | Configuration layering indication, across classes and server-specific settings:true = [Default] Configuration lookups continue matching server classes after the first match.false = Use the first match, only.
| |
| deinstall | Boolean | Remove mapping indication:true = Remove mapping of {name} from all server classes and delete it from client target repositories.false = Do not remove mapping of {name}.
| |
| filterType | Enum | Filter execution order:whitelist = Whitelist filters are applied before blacklist filters.blacklist = Blacklist filters are applied before whitelist filters.
| |
| machineTypesFilter | String | Comma-separated list of filters to be used in Boolean and logic with whitelist and blacklist filters.
Only clients that match the white/blacklist filters AND that match this machineTypesFilter are included. Thus the match is an intersection of the matches for the white/blacklist and the matches for MachineTypesFilter. The patterns are PCRE regular expressions, with the following aids for easier entry:
| |
| repositoryLocation | String | The location on the deployment server to store the content that is to be deployed for this server class.
For example: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/deployment-apps | |
| restartSplunkWeb | Boolean | Indicates whether to restart SplunkWeb on the client when a member app or a directly configured app is updated.
Defaults to false | |
| restartSplunkd | Boolean | Indicates whether to restart splunkd on the client when a member app or a directly configured app is updated.
Defaults to false | |
| serverclass | String | The name of the server class to which the application is mapped.
Do not specify this parameter if | |
| stateOnClient | Enum | Valid values are (enabled | disabled | noop).
| |
| targetRepositoryLocation | String | The location on the deployment client to install the apps defined for this Deployment Server.
If unset, or set to empty, the repositoryLocation path is used. That is, defaults to: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps (the live configuration directory for a Splunk deployment) Useful only with complex (for example, tiered) deployment strategies. | |
| tmpFolder | String | Working folder used by deployment server.
Defaults to $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/tmp | |
| unmap | Boolean | Indicates whether to remove the mapping of the application to the specified server class. | |
| whitelist.* | String | List of hosts to accept for this server class.
For each whitelist, replace * with an ordinal number to specify additional whitelists. Filter ordinals must start at 0 and be consecutive. |
Returned values
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| archive | Specifies the location of the compressed version (bundle) of the app. |
| blacklist.* | Regular expressions used to exclude, when mapping this application to a client.
If a client matches any of the blacklist regular expressions, it does not receive the application. The * is replaced by an integral ordinal number. |
| continueMatching | If true, configuration lookups continue matching server classes, beyond the first match. If false, only the first match is used. |
| filterType | blacklist)
Determines the order of execution of filters. If filterType is whitelist, all whitelist filters are applied first, followed by blacklist filters. If filterType is blacklist, all blacklist filters are applied first, followed by whitelist filters. See description for the filterType POST parameter for more information. |
| loadtime | Specifies the date and time the application was last loaded (or reloaded) by the deployment server.
An application not mapped to any serverclasses does not get loaded, thus its loadtime attribute is 0; in epoch terms, which is 01 Jan 1970 at midnight GMT. |
| machineTypesFilter | List of filters to be used in Boolean and logic with whitelist and blacklist filters. |
| repositoryLocation | The location on the deployment server to store the content that is to be deployed for this server class. |
| restartSplunkWeb | Indicates whether to restart Splunk Web. |
| restartSplunkd | Indicates whether to restart splunkd. |
| serverclass | The name of the server class to which the application is mapped. |
| serverclasses | List of server classes associated with the application. |
| size | Indicates in bytes the size on disk of the compressed version (bundle) of the application. |
| stateOnClient | Specifies whether the deployment client is enabled or disabled. |
| targetRepositoryLocation | The location on the deployment client to install the apps defined for this Deployment Server.
If unset, or set to empty, the repositoryLocation path is used. |
| tmpFolder | Working folder used by deployment server. |
| whitelist.* | Regular expressions used to accept, when mapping this application to a client.
If a client matches any of the whitelist regular expressions, it accepts the application. The * is replaced by an integral ordinal number. |

POST
Create a server class.
Request parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| name required |
String | The name of the server class. | |
| blacklist.* | String | List of hosts to exclude for this server class.
For each blacklist, replace * with an ordinal number to specify additional blacklists. Filter ordinals must start at 0 and be consecutive. | |
| continueMatching | Boolen | Controls how configuration is layered across classes and server-specific settings.
If true, configuration lookups continue matching server classes, beyond the first match. If false, only the first match is used. Matching is done in the order that server classes are defined. Defaults to true. A serverClass can override this property and stop the matching. | |
| filterType | Enum | Valid values: (whitelist | blacklist)
Determines the order of execution of filters. If filterType is whitelist, all whitelist filters are applied first, followed by blacklist filters. If filterType is blacklist, all blacklist filters are applied first, followed by whitelist filters. The whitelist setting indicates a filtering strategy that pulls in a subset:
The blacklist setting indicates a filtering strategy that rules out a subset:
More briefly: whitelist: default no-match -> whitelists enable -> blacklists disable If you specify whitelist at the global level, and then specify blacklist for an individual server class, the setting becomes blacklist for that server class, and you have to provide another filter in that server class definition to replace the one you overrode. | |
| machineTypesFilter | String | Comma-separated list of filters to be used in Boolean and logic with whitelist and blacklist filters.
Only clients that match the white/blacklist filters AND that match this machineTypesFilter are included. Thus the match is an intersection of the matches for the white/blacklist and the matches for MachineTypesFilter. The patterns are PCRE regular expressions, with the following aids for easier entry:
| |
| repositoryLocation | String | The location on the deployment server to store the content that is to be deployed for this server class.
For example: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/deployment-apps | |
| restartSplunkWeb | Boolean | Indicates whether to restart SplunkWeb on the client when a member app or a directly configured app is updated.
Defaults to false | |
| restartSplunkd | Boolean | Indicates whether to restart splunkd on the client when a member app or a directly configured app is updated.
Defaults to false | |
| stateOnClient | Enum | Valid values are (enabled | disabled | noop).
| |
| targetRepositoryLocation | String | The location on the deployment client to install the apps defined for this Deployment Server.
If unset, or set to empty, the repositoryLocation path is used. That is, defaults to: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps (the live configuration directory for a Splunk instance Useful only with complex (for example, tiered) deployment strategies.
| |
| tmpFolder | String | Working folder used by deployment server.
Defaults to $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/tmp | |
| whitelist.* | String | List of hosts to accept for this server class.
For each whitelist, replace * with an ordinal number to specify additional whitelists. Filter ordinals must start at 0 and be consecutive. |
Returned values
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| blacklist-size | The number of entries in the blacklist for this serverclass. |
| blacklist.* | Regular expressions used to exclude for this server class.
If a client matches any of the blacklist regular expressions, it is not included in the server class. The * is replaced by an integral ordinal number. |
| continueMatching | If true, configuration lookups continue matching server classes, beyond the first match. If false, only the first match is used. |
| currentDownloads | Number of applications currently downloaded. |
| filterType | blacklist)
Determines the order of execution of filters. If filterType is whitelist, all whitelist filters are applied first, followed by blacklist filters. If filterType is blacklist, all blacklist filters are applied first, followed by whitelist filters. See description for the filterType POST parameter for more information. |
| loadTime | The time, in epoch seconds, this serverclass was loaded. |
| machineTypesFilter | List of filters to be used in Boolean and logic with whitelist and blacklist filters. |
| repositoryList | List of applications stored at the location specified by repositoryLocation. |
| repositoryLocation | The location on the deployment server to store the content that is to be deployed for this server class. |
| restartSplunkWeb | Indicates whether to restart Splunk Web. |
| restartSplunkd | Indicates whether to restart splunkd. |
| stateOnClient | Specifies whether the deployment client is enabled or disabled. |
| targetRepositoryLocation | The location on the deployment client to install the apps defined for this Deployment Server.
If unset, or set to empty, the repositoryLocation path is used. That is, defaults to: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps (the live configuration directory for a Splunk deployment. Useful only with complex (for example, tiered) deployment strategies. |
| tmpFolder | Working folder used by deployment server.
Defaults to $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/tmp |
| whitelist-size | Specifies the number of entries in the whitelist for this server class. |
| whitelist.* | Regular expressions used to accept for this server class.
If a client matches any of the whitelist regular expressions, it is included in the server class. The * is replaced by an integral ordinal number. |

POST
Update the named server class.
Request parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| blacklist.* | String | List of hosts to exclude for this server class.
For each blacklist, replace * with an ordinal number to specify additional blacklists. Filter ordinals must start at 0 and be consecutive. | |
| continueMatching | Boolen | Controls how configuration is layered across classes and server-specific settings.
If true, configuration lookups continue matching server classes, beyond the first match. If false, only the first match is used. Matching is done in the order that server classes are defined. Defaults to true. A serverClass can override this property and stop the matching. | |
| filterType | Enum | Valid values: (whitelist | blacklist)
Determines the order of execution of filters. If filterType is whitelist, all whitelist filters are applied first, followed by blacklist filters. If filterType is blacklist, all blacklist filters are applied first, followed by whitelist filters. The whitelist setting indicates a filtering strategy that pulls in a subset:
The blacklist setting indicates a filtering strategy that rules out a subset:
More briefly: whitelist: default no-match -> whitelists enable -> blacklists disable If you specify whitelist at the global level, and then specify blacklist for an individual server class, the setting becomes blacklist for that server class, and you have to provide another filter in that server class definition to replace the one you overrode. | |
| machineTypesFilter | String | Comma-separated list of filters to be used in Boolean and logic with whitelist and blacklist filters.
Only clients that match the white/blacklist filters AND that match this machineTypesFilter are included. Thus the match is an intersection of the matches for the white/blacklist and the matches for MachineTypesFilter. The patterns are PCRE regular expressions, with the following aids for easier entry:
| |
| repositoryLocation | String | The location on the deployment server to store the content that is to be deployed for this server class.
For example: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/deployment-apps | |
| restartSplunkWeb | Boolean | Indicates whether to restart SplunkWeb on the client when a member app or a directly configured app is updated.
Defaults to false | |
| restartSplunkd | Boolean | Indicates whether to restart splunkd on the client when a member app or a directly configured app is updated.
Defaults to false | |
| stateOnClient | Enum | Valid values are (enabled | disabled | noop).
| |
| targetRepositoryLocation | String | The location on the deployment client to install the apps defined for this Deployment Server.
If unset, or set to empty, the repositoryLocation path is used. That is, defaults to: $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps (the live configuration directory for a Splunk instance Useful only with complex (for example, tiered) deployment strategies.
| |
| tmpFolder | String | Working folder used by deployment server.
Defaults to $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/tmp | |
| whitelist.* | String | List of hosts to accept for this server class.
For each whitelist, replace * with an ordinal number to specify additional whitelists. Filter ordinals must start at 0 and be consecutive. |
