Add the search ID to my search results

Is it possible to add the search ID for the currently running search to the search results?

I have a report that populates a summary index and I have an alert running against the summary index which triggers a webhook. Here is the flow.

scheduled report --> summary index --> alert --> webhook

I would like to capture the search ID from the scheduled report somehow and store that in the summary index so that I could build a link back to the job results for the scheduled report. I figure if that if there is someway to access this ID in my search pipeline, I can just include it in my scheduled report and it will end up in the summary index.

Any help would be appreciated.

You can include |addinfo command in your summary index search which gives info_sid field which contains current job SID. See more on addinfo command here:
