NO.26 What must be done when calling the serviceNS endpoint?

Authenticate with an admin user.

Specify the user and app context in the URI.

Authenticate with the user of the required context.

Pass the user and app context in the request payload.

NO.27 Which of the following statements defines a namespace?

The namespace is a combination of the user and the app.

The namespace is a combination of the user, the app, and the role.

The namespace is a combination of the user, the app, the role, and the sharing level.

The namespace is a combination of the user, the app, the role, the sharing level, and the permissions.

Explanation
The correct answer is A because the namespace is a combination of the user and the app. The namespace determines the scope and visibility of the knowledge objects in Splunk. The role, the sharing level, and the permissions are not part of the namespace, but they affect the access to the knowledge objects. You can find more information about the namespace and the knowledge objects in the Splunk Developer Guide.

</drilldown>

NO.29 Which Splunk REST endpoint is used to create a KV store collection?

/storage/collections

/storage/kvstore/create

/storage/collections/config

/storage/kvstore/collections

Explanation
The Splunk REST endpoint that is used to create a KV store collection is /storage/collections/config. This endpoint lets you create, update, or delete a KV store collection. The other endpoints are either invalid or used for different purposes. For more information, see Use the Splunk REST API to access the KV Store.

NO.30 When added to an app’s default.meta file, which of the following makes one of its views available to other apps?

export = app

export = none

export = view

export = system

NO.31 When the search/jobs REST endpoint is called to execute a search, what can be done to reduce the results size in the results? (Select all that apply.)

Use a generating search.

Remove unneeded fields.

Truncate the data, using selective functions.

Summarize data, using analytic commands.

NO.32 Searching “index=_internal metrics | head 3” from Splunk Web returned the following events:
04-12-2018 18:39:43.514 +0200 INFO Metrics – group=thruput, name=thruput, instantaneous_kbps=0.9651774014563425, instantaneous_eps=5.645638802094809, average_kbps=1.198995639527069, total_k_processed=2676, kb=29.91796875, ev=175, load_average=3.85888671875

(Select all that apply.)

_raw

name

sourcetype

instantaneous_kbps

NO.33 Which statements are true regarding HEC (HTTP Event Collector) tokens? (Select all that apply.)

Multiple tokens can be created for use with different sourcetypes and indexes.

The edit token http admin role capability is required to create a token.

To create a token, send a POST request to services/collector endpoint.

Tokens can be edited using the data/inputs/http/{tokenName} endpoint.

NO.34 Which of the following endpoints is used to authenticate with the Splunk REST API?

/services/auth/login

/services/session/login

/services/auth/session/login

/servicesNS/authentication/login

NO.35 After updating a dashboard in myApp, a Splunk admin moves myApp to a different Splunk instance. After logging in to the new instance, the dashboard is not seen. What could have happened? (Select all that apply.)

The dashboard’s permissions were set to private.

User role permissions are different on the new instance.

The admin deleted the myApp/local directory before packaging.

Changes were placed in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc./apps/search/default/data/ui/nav

Explanation
The correct answer is A, B, and C because these are the possible reasons why the dashboard is not seen after moving myApp to a different Splunk instance. Option A is correct because if the dashboard’s permissions were set to private, only the owner of the dashboard can see it on the new instance. Option B is correct because if the user role permissions are different on the new instance, the user may not have access to the dashboard.
Option C is correct because if the admin deleted the myApp/local directory before packaging, the dashboard configuration may have been lost. Option D is incorrect because changes placed in
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/search/default/data/ui/nav do not affect the visibility of the dashboard. You can find more information about dashboard permissions and configuration in the Splunk Developer Guide.

NO.36 Which of the following are reserved field names in a KV Store? (Select all that apply.)

_key

_time

_user

_source

Explanation
The reserved field names in a KV Store are _key and _user. The _key field is a unique identifier for each record in a KV Store collection, and the _user field is the owner of the record. The other fields are not reserved, and can be used as custom fields in a KV Store collection. For more information, see KV Store field names.

NO.37 For a KV store, a lookup stanza in the transforms.conf file must contain which of the following? (Select all that apply.)

collection

fields_list

external_type

internal_type

Explanation
The correct answer is A and B, because for a KV Store, a lookup stanza in the transforms.conf file must contain the collection and fields_list attributes. A lookup stanza is a configuration section in the transforms.conf file that defines the properties of a lookup, such as the lookup type, the lookup file or collection, the input and output fields, and the match type. A lookup is a feature that allows Splunk to enrich the events with additional data from an external source, such as a CSV file or a KV Store collection. For a KV Store lookup, the lookup stanza must have the collection attribute, which specifies the name of the KV Store collection to use, and the fields_list attribute, which specifies the fields to return from the KV Store collection2. The external_type and internal_type attributes are not required for a KV Store lookup, but for a scripted lookup, which is a type of lookup that uses an external script to perform the lookup operation.

NO.38 Which of the following statements describe one-shot searches? (Select all that apply.)

Are always executed asynchronously.

Can specify csv as an output format.

Stream all results upon search completion.

Can use autocancel to set a timeout limit.

Explanation
The correct answer is B and C because these are the statements that describe one-shot searches. A one-shot search is a type of search that runs once and returns all the results at once. Option B is correct because a one-shot search can specify csv as an output format, which returns the results as comma-separated values.
Option C is correct because a one-shot search streams all the results upon search completion, which means it does not return any partial results while the search is running. Option A is incorrect because a one-shot search can be executed either synchronously or asynchronously, depending on the method used. Option D is incorrect because a one-shot search cannot use auto_cancel to set a timeout limit, as this parameter is only applicable for normal searches. You can find more information about one-shot searches in the Splunk REST API Reference Manual.

NO.39 Which of the following describes a Splunk custom visualization?

A visualization with custom colors.

Any visualization available in Splunk.

A visualization in Splunk modified by the user.

A visualization that uses the Splunk Custom Visualization API.

NO.40 Consider the following Python code snippet used in a Splunk add-on:
if not os.path.exists(full_path): self.doAction(full_path, header) else: f = open (full_path) oldORnew = f.readline().split(“,”) f.close() An attacker could create a denial of service by causing an error in either the open() or readline() commands. What type of vulnerability is this?

CWE-693: Protection Mechanism Failure

CWE-562: Return of Stack Variable Address

CWE-404: Improper Resource Shutdown or Release

CWE-636: Not Failing Securely (‘Failing Open’)

Explanation
The type of vulnerability in the Python code snippet is CWE-404: Improper Resource Shutdown or Release.
This vulnerability occurs when a resource is not released or closed properly after use, which can lead to resource exhaustion or unexpected behavior. In this case, the open() and readline() commands could fail to close the file handle, which could prevent other processes from accessing the file or cause a memory leak. The other types of vulnerabilities are not relevant to this scenario. For more information, see CWE-404: Improper Resource Shutdown or Release.

NO.41 Which of the following is a way to monitor app performance? (Select all that apply.)

Using Splunk logs.

Using the search job inspector.

Using the Monitoring Console.

Using the storage/collections/config REST endpoint.

Explanation
The correct answer is A, B, and C, because they are all ways to monitor app performance. App performance refers to how well an app performs its intended functions, such as data ingestion, search, visualization, and alerting. Monitoring app performance helps to identify and troubleshoot issues, optimize performance, and improve user experience. Using Splunk logs, using the search job inspector, and using the Monitoring Console are all methods to monitor app performance by collecting and analyzing various metrics and data related to the app. Using the storage/collections/config REST endpoint is not a way to monitor app performance, but a way to configure the KV Store collections for an app.

NO.42 Which event handler uses the <selection> element to support pan and zoom functionality?

Visualization event handler

Form input event handler

Condition event handler

Search event handler

Explanation
The correct answer is A, because visualization event handler uses the <selection> element to support pan and zoom functionality. Visualization event handler is a type of event handler that enables you to interact with custom visualizations3. The <selection> element defines the behavior of the visualization when the user selects a region of the chart. It supports attributes such as pan and zoom4.

NO.43 How can indexer acknowledgement be enabled for HTTP Event Collector (HEC)? (Select all that apply.)

No need to do anything, it is turned on by default.

When a REST request is sent to create a token, the property for indexer acknowledgment must be set to
1.

When a new HEC token is created in Splunk Web, select the checkbox labeled “Enable indexer acknowledgment”.

When the Global Settings for HEC are updated in Splunk Web, select the checkbox labeled “Enable indexer acknowledgement”.

Explanation
The correct answer is B, C, and D because these are the ways to enable indexer acknowledgement for HTTP Event Collector (HEC). Indexer acknowledgement is a feature that ensures that the data sent to HEC is successfully indexed by Splunk before deleting it from the sender. Option B is correct because you can use a REST request to create a token with the indexer_ack property set to 1. Option C is correct because you can select the checkbox labeled “Enable indexer acknowledgment” when creating a new HEC token in Splunk Web. Option D is correct because you can select the checkbox labeled “Enable indexer acknowledgment” when updating the Global Settings for HEC in Splunk Web. Option A is incorrect because indexer acknowledgment is not turned on by default. You can find more information about indexer acknowledgment for HEC in the Splunk Developer Guide.
