| rest /services/apps/local | search disabled=0 core=0 | table label title version |
Number of Hosts Associated with a Serverclass
The following query will list the number of hosts associated with all serverclasses on your Splunk Deployment server. This query should be run on your Deployment Server.
|
1 |

List All Splunk Users & Associated Roles
The following Splunk query will show a table of all users and their roles:
|
1 |
| rest /services/authentication/users | stats values(roles) as Roles by user |
*Admin Notes* I’ve found the following query to work better in my environment:
|
1 |
| rest /services/authentication/users | stats values(roles) as Roles by title |

Indexes in Splunk
For those who have more than a few indexes (we’ve got 27 non-administrative indexes) I wrote this search so people could figure-out what we have and what it is used for. The search requires that there be a file called indexdescriptions.csv located in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/search/lookups (or “Program Files”\splunk\etc\apps\search\lookups\indexdescriptions.csv ). That file should have “index,description” on the […]
Retention Period in days per index
This query will give you a table of all indexes and their respective retention period in days:
|
1 2 3 4 |
| rest splunk_server=* /services/data/indexes | join type=outer title [ | rest splunk_server=* /services/data/indexes-extended ] | eval retentionInDays=frozenTimePeriodInSecs/86400 | table title retentionInDays |

1 2 3 |
| rest /services/authentication/users | eval name=coalesce(realname, title) | stats values(roles) as Role first(defaultApp) as "Landing App" count(capabilities) as "Number of Capabilities" by name |
Show all Indexes and Sourcetypes via REST
The following Splunk query uses REST to display non internal indexes associated with sourcetypes. It is my understanding that this is all time (such is the way of REST searches)
|
1 2 3 |
| rest /services/data/inputs/all | search index!=_* | stats values(sourcetype) by index |
Remove Z or T string from your Timestamp
| rest /services/authentication/current-context | table username roles updated | search username!=splunk-system-user | rex field=updated (?<timestampA>\d{4}-\d{2}-\d+)T(?<timestampB>\d+:\d+:\d+.\d+) | eval timestamp= timestampA + timestampB | eval timestamp = strptime(timestamp, “%Y-%m-%d%H:%M:%S.%3N”) | eval timestamp=strftime(timestamp, “%c”) |fields – timestampA timestampB
User Info Dashboard – Using REST
I found this very useful user statistics/information splunk dashboard on www.function1.com/2016/06/rest-easy-with-the-splunk-rest-api. They have additional Splunk REST queries and examples worth checking out!

Use REST to gather Index Info
Here is some SPL to get useful information via REST on indexes within your Splunk environment:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
| REST /services/data/indexes | eval currentDBSizeMB=tostring(currentDBSizeMB, "commas") | eval totalEventCount=tostring(totalEventCount, "commas") | eval frozenTimePeriodInHours=(frozenTimePeriodInSecs/60/60) | table title splunk_server currentDBSizeMB frozenTimePeriodInHours maxTime minTime totalEventCount |
Time Offset on Splunk Servers
This Splunk Query shows if there is a time offset on your Splunk servers. I borrowed and modified this one from the splunk clock skew search posted on www.bbosearch.com (another pretty awesome site like this one!). My version strips the unnecessary and renames some fields, but feel free to do what you want with it: […]
List of Alerts via REST
The following Splunk search (query) will show a list of alerts within Splunk via the | rest call:
|
1 |
| rest /services/alerts/fired_alerts splunk_server=local| table eai:acl.owner eai:acl.app id title triggered_alert_count |
List of Extractions in Transforms.conf
Useful Splunk Query to show REGEX extractions in Transforms.conf
|
1 |
| rest /services/data/transforms/extractions | table title eai:appName REGEX FORMAT updated |
List of Props.conf Extractions
Useful Splunk Query to show extractions from Props.conf:
|
1 |
| rest /services/data/props/extractions | table title type value attribute |
List Inputs using REST
As the title says. Pretty nice Splunk Search if you’ve forgotten what inputs you have configured and need a central place to list them.
|
1 |
| rest /services/data/inputs/all | convert ctime(starttime) AS "Start Time" | convert ctime(endtime) AS "End Time" | table index interval source sourcetype title updated starttime endtime "Start Time" "End Time" |
Show all currently logged in users
Use this Splunk rest query to list all currently logged in users (to your Splunk server). | rest /services/authentication/current-context | search NOT username=”splunk-system-user” | table username roles updated
