Search Library​

Splunk Processing Language, or SPL, is what is used to query the data that Splunk has ingested. SPL is complex and can be a challenge for many customers trying to adopt Splunk. Search Library is a collaboration tool that allows Splunk users to take advantage of an extensive library of optimized searches that come with the App as well as manage their own searches. Search Library comes with 80+ powerful searches that work with CIM compliant data and API calls to enable teams to get value out of Splunk quickly. Each search comes with a description and an explanation to further elaborate what the search achieves. Users and Admins can also add their own searches to the library, to share searches that are relevant for their own use cases and assist new users in interacting with their data.

With Atlas 3.14.0 on Seat based licensing, Users no longer need to have an Atlas Seat to use Search Library.
