Splunk Search

Search Factory: Why am I getting unknown search command 'tag' only in Javascript while it works in classic Search?

seva98
Path Finder

My search starts with this:
tag=kpi earliest=1521504000 latest=1521849600 | table _time enterprise_id facility_id shop_id (there is more after)
If I run this search inside classic Search, I get results as excepted.

But if I run search with exactly the same query in javascript with
service.oneshotSearch(query, { "output_mode": "JSON" }, function(err, data) { ... }

I will receive following error message:
common.js:428 [SPLUNKD] Search Factory: Unknown search command 'tag'.

Are there some kind of limitation for oneshot search that doesn't allow using tags or do I need to pass any other config to oneshot search in order to make it work with tagin query?

You need to prepend search to your search.

eg.

search tag=kpi earliest=1521504000 latest=1521849600 | table _time enterprise_id facility_id shop_id

Thanks! Just found out that like seconds ago by searching in another project. Search was really missing and now it works.
