Splunk Can Help

Splunk TV, our free-to use Apple TV app, is the best way to view your Splunk Dashboards on a TV and help alleviate some of the remote work challenges. It’s more cost effective than using a dedicated laptop or desktop. Splunk TV is a read-only experience, providing secure access to your data instead of leaving a logged-in machine unattended.

Dashboard Groups

Do you have more than one dashboard you care about and missing your multi-screen setup at work? The Dashboard Groups feature in Splunk TV should help, as you can view a slideshow of several dashboards at once with a hands-free experience that gets you all the data you need, and provides visibility on all the dashboards you care about.

The WFHOC

With Splunk TV and Zoom, you can stay connected and informed, even if you’re still in your pajamas. It’s the WFHOC.

Why is it important to get fast access to Splunk?

As our remote work increases, getting fast access to the correct Splunk instance saves us time and ensures we are getting the right information from our data. We made it easier for our engineering teams to access all relevant Splunk instances with a single tap from their mobile device. This is done by installing a secure “Splunk Instance Directory.”

Can you receive alerts on Splunk Mobile?

With Splunk Mobile, you can receive alerts wherever you are and take action. These actions can be anything — and we mean anything — as they are simply URL webhooks that you define to attach to your alerts.

Does Splunk Mobile have a live link?

Splunk Mobile has sharing features built- in to the app. Examples include sharing your data as captured images or as a live link to an interactive dashboard. Our favorite thing to do is to either copy that link to a Zoom chat or Slack thread where people can kick off their own investigations.
