Splunk Application Framework Quick Start

Add a search

Search is a core feature of the Splunk Application Framework. All of the framework views can be bound to a search in various ways. Some views are populated by searches, some modify the searches they are bound to, and some do both.

Each search is represented by a manager, which manages the query, properties, operation, and lifetime of an individual search job. You can create search managers using Django template tags or JavaScript. Search managers can correspond to a saved search, or a search job you create on the fly in code or dynamically with views.

Creating a search manager

A search manager can be input dynamically using a SearchBar view or hardcoded into a framework app.
