Attendees joined us on January 15
th for the
Getting Started with Splunk Data Manipulation workshop, a hands-on introduction to the Splunk GUI. Attendees learned how to upload a .csv to Splunk, perform simple field extractions, and build basic dashboards and reports! During this virtual workshop, participants discovered how to utilize data to:
- Build several searches to gain more insight on the data set
- Explore how to set conditional searches
- Build custom visualizations and how they can be edited with XML
Through the use of a second data set, attendees created a new set of data to allow us to correlate between the two. Upon completion, participants had a better understanding of how to:
- Run a basic Splunk query
- Build and customize a Splunk dashboard/report
- Build a lookup table with Splunk and correlate between data sources
- Use existing resources, such as Splunkbase to accelerate your Splunk usage
