DataModels

Create, query, update, and delete data models in Splunk.

Select

The driver will use the Splunk API to process search criteria that refer to the Id column. This column supports server-side processing for the = operator. The driver processes other filters client-side within the driver.

For example, the following query is processed server side by the Splunk APIs:

SELECT * FROM DataModels WHERE Id = 'SampleModel'

You can turn off the client-side execution of the query by setting SupportEnhancedSQL to false in which case any search criteria that refers to other columns will cause an error or inconsistent data.

Insert

The Id column is the minimum requirement for an insert. In an insert, the DataModels table allows only the Id and Acceleration columns.

INSERT INTO DataModels (Id, Acceleration) VALUES ('initialname', '{"enabled":false,"earliest_time":"","hunk.file_format":"","hunk.dfs_block_size":0,"hunk.compression_codec":""}' )

Update

The DataModels table allows updates for the Acceleration column when Id is specified. You can also set the Provisional pseudocolumn.

UPDATE DataModels SET Provisional = 'true', Acceleration = '{"enabled":false,"earliest_time": "-1mon", "cron_schedule": "0 */12 * * *","hunk.file_format":"","hunk.dfs_block_size":0,"hunk.compression_codec":""}' WHERE Id = 'initialname'

Delete

The DataModels table allows deleting a record when Id is specified.

DELETE FROM Datamodels WHERE Id = 'initialname'

Pseudo-Columns

Pseudo column fields are used in the WHERE clause of SELECT statements and offer a more granular control over the tuples that are returned from the data source.


Name	Type	Description
Provisional	Boolean	Indicates whether the data model is provisional. Provisional data models are not saved. Specify true to validate a data model before saving it.
