A Splunk admin has created a complex search that produces a chart. The admin needs to use this chart in multiple dashboards and also have it run automatically every night to generate a PDF report. The admin wants to avoid duplicating the search logic. What is the best approach?

Save the search as a report, then add the report to the dashboards and schedule the report for PDF delivery

Export the chart as a PNG and upload it to each dashboard

Create a dashboard with the chart and schedule the dashboard for PDF delivery

Create a separate search for each dashboard and a separate scheduled search for the PDF

In Splunk's chart configuration, what is the purpose of the legend?

To adjust the scale of the Y-axis

To identify what each color or pattern in the chart represents

To change the chart's background color

When creating a chart with multiple series, what must the data include to distinguish each series?

A single numeric field for all values

A field that identifies the series, such as a category or group name

What is the primary benefit of saving a chart visualization as a report in Splunk?

It automatically optimizes the search for faster performance

It allows the chart to be reused in dashboards and scheduled deliveries

It permanently stores the raw event data

It prevents other users from running the search

A dashboard contains a column chart of errors by service. A user clicks on the column for the 'payment' service and expects to see the individual error events that make up that count. What must be configured for this to work?

The chart's drilldown action must be set to 'Search'

The chart's data labels must be enabled

The chart's legend must be enabled

The chart must be saved as a report first
