Summary

In this chapter, we covered how to create reports from searches, how to schedule them to run on a periodic basis, and how to use reports to create panels in a new dashboard. We then learned how to add more panels to our dashboard and configure a number of useful features within it. We finished up with learning how to use a search to create an alert that can notify us when things are amiss.

In the next chapter, we'll take a close look at several Splunk apps that you'll want to be familiar with.
