can i run curl command in the search head to access the rest api logs
Hi @Nadhiyaa
Yes, you can run the Curl Command on Search Head,
CURL is a linux or Unix command which performs Get/Post/Delete Operations on given Endpoints, in our case Splunk end points.
For Example:
Curl -k -u admin:password https://SearchHead_host:8089/servicesNS/admin/search/search/jobs/export -d search=“search index=_internal | head 3” -d output_mode=csv/xml/json
when you execute the above the curl request on the search head, you will get the results of the above search exported into csv/xml/json files.
you can do a lot with splunk end points, to start with look these docs.

Thanks.
Thanks
It's not clear what you want to accomplish. You can make Splunk REST API calls directly in the search window using the rest
command. For other REST APIs, use the REST API Modular Input app (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1546/).
