Splunk Core Certified User Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following options is NOT a method of adding data in Splunk?

Upload

Monitor

Import

The correct choice is based on the standard methods recognized within Splunk for ingesting data. In Splunk, common methods for adding data include uploading files directly, monitoring live data from files or directories, and forwarding data from remote sources.

The term "import" is not recognized as an official method for adding data in Splunk’s data ingestion processes. Rather, the appropriate terminology for bringing data into Splunk involves "upload," "monitor," and "forward," which refer to specific functionalities provided by the platform.

Uploading allows users to manually add files, monitoring continuously watches specified files or directories for new data, and forwarding involves sending data from another source (like forwarders) to a Splunk indexer. Thus, the term "import" does not fit into the established methods of data ingestion within Splunk.
