Overview of the jQuery 3.5 upgrade

Check this manual often for updated information about the jQuery 3.5 upgrade and how it affects your Splunk deployment or Splunk apps. This content is subject to change.

Beginning with Splunk Cloud 8.1.2103 and Splunk Enterprise 8.2.0, jQuery 3.5 is shipped with the Splunk platform. Splunk will remove older versions of jQuery entirely in a future release.

• Splunk Cloud Platform 8.1.2103
• Splunk Enterprise 8.2
• Splunk Enterprise Security 7.0.1
• Splunk IT Service Intelligence 4.10
• Splunk Machine Learning Toolkit 5.2.2

Whether you are a Splunk platform user, admin, or developer, you need to identify prerequisites, required changes, and steps for upgrading impacted Splunk products and apps to jQuery 3.5. As Splunk makes new tools and advice available, this content will be updated.
