Talk to an Expert ›Cribl Search is a powerful tool that allows users to search and analyze data at rest, quickly and efficiently. But what if you need to send your search results to a different system for further analysis, audit, or compliance purposes?
For instance, consider the following use cases:
That’s where send operator comes in.
In the recent v4.1 release, the addition of the send operator to Cribl Search has unlocked new possibilities for data routing and analysis. In this blog post, we will discuss what the send operator does, and how it works, provide examples, and share some best practices to help you fine-tune your search results before sending them out.
The new send operator in Cribl Search allows users to find with surgical precision exactly what they need and leverage native integration with Cribl Stream to easily send the search results to another system without having to configure anything.
The syntax for send operator is very straightforward. Once you completed your search, pipe to the send operator and specify various parameters for it:
send [ tee=Boolean ] ( [ group=WorkerGroup ] | [ URL ] )
The simplest way to use this operator is to add | send to your search.
This data will automatically be routed to the Stream Cribl HTTP Source, which is a Source in Stream.
That Source can then be connected to any Destination via Routes or QuickConnect (see Stream docs for more details on how to accomplish this.)
Now, let’s review a few simple examples and use cases:
1. Send status events to a default Worker Group:
dataset=myDataset | limit 100 | send
2. Send limited events, including results:
dataset=myDataset | limit 100 | send tee=true
3. Send events to a Worker Group named “myGroup”:
dataset=myDataset | send group=myGroup
4. Send events to a hybrid (non-Cribl.Cloud-hosted) Worker Group:
dataset=myDataset | send "https://in.your-tenant.com:10200"
Before sending out your search results, it’s important to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the data. The count and limit operators in Cribl Search can help you achieve this by fine-tuning your search results.
count: This operator returns the total number of events in a dataset. Use count to verify the volume of data before sending it out.
Example:
dataset=myS3VPCFlows earliest=1hr | count
limit: The limit operator returns only the specified number of events from the dataset. Use this to review a sample of your search results and ensure they match your expectations before sending the data.
Example:
dataset=myS3VPCFlows earliest=1hr | limit 10
Once you’ve verified the accuracy and relevance of your search results using the count and limit operators as guardrails, you can proceed to send the data using the send operator, as described in the examples section.
With the new send operator in Cribl Search, users can now effortlessly send search results to different systems for advanced analysis, audit, and compliance. By following the best practices outlined in this post, and adhering to the rules governing the send operator, you can ensure the accuracy and relevance of your search results before sending them out.
