app key value store

noun

The app key value store (KV store) provides a way to save and retrieve data within your Splunk apps as collections of key-value pairs, letting you manage and maintain the state of your apps and store additional information.

With the KV store, you can do the following tasks:

• Define the storage definition schema for your data.
• Perform create-read-update-delete (CRUD) operations on individual records using the Splunk REST API and lookups within the Splunk search language.
• Apply role-based access to control which users can access and manage data.
