Question 73 - SPLK-2003 discussion

In Splunk SOAR, when needing to run multiple on_poll searches to a Splunk Cloud instance, the recommended approach is to configure a second Splunk asset specifically for the second query. This method allows each Splunk asset to maintain its own settings and query configurations, ensuring that each search can be managed and optimized independently. This separation also helps in troubleshooting and maintaining clarity in the configuration.

Option A, installing a second Splunk app, is not necessarily relevant as the app itself does not determine the number of queries but rather how they are managed and processed through assets.

Option B, configuring the second query in the Splunk App for SOAR Export, does not apply as this app typically handles data exportation from SOAR to Splunk, not managing multiple polling queries.

Option C, entering the two queries as comma-separated values, would not be practical or functional as Splunk SOAR's asset configuration does not process multiple queries in this manner for polling purposes.

When configuring a Splunk asset for SOAR to connect to a Splunk Cloud instance and there is a need to run two different on_poll searches, the appropriate action is to configure a second Splunk asset with the second query. This allows each Splunk asset to have its own unique on_poll search configuration, enabling them to run independently and retrieve different sets of data as required.The other options, such as installing a second app or entering queries as comma-separated values, are not standard practices for managing multiple on_poll searches in Splunk SOAR1.
