When configuring a new search workflow action in Splunk, which of the following is a required basic setting?

The index from which the action pulls data

The permission level for who can see the action

The time range for the action to appear

What is the purpose of using tokens in a search workflow action's URL?

To pass field values from the search result into the URL

To encrypt the URL for security

To make the URL shorter and easier to read

To prevent the URL from being cached by the browser

A Splunk admin is testing a workflow action that links to an external system. The action appears correctly in the search results, but when clicked, it opens a '404 Not Found' page. The URL is https://ext.example.com/item/$id$. What is the most likely cause?

The workflow action is not enabled

The $id$ token is not being substituted correctly, or the field value is not a valid ID for the external system

The 'Open in new window' option is disabled

The workflow action is set to 'search' type instead of 'link'

A Splunk admin is designing a workflow action for a SOC. Analysts need to open a ticket in a ticketing system from a search result. The ticketing system requires a POST request to create a ticket, but Splunk workflow actions only support GET requests. The admin needs to find a workaround. What is the most practical solution?

Create a workflow action that links to an intermediate web service that accepts a GET request and performs the POST to the ticketing system

Use a 'search' workflow action to run a search that triggers the ticket creation

Use a field extraction to transform the event into a POST request

Configure the workflow action to use a custom HTTP method

If a workflow action does not appear on a field value in search results, what is the most likely first thing to check?

Whether the 'Apply to' setting matches the field or event type in the results

Whether the Splunk server has been restarted

Whether the user has admin permissions

Whether the search query includes the 'workflow' command
