Splunk Core Certified User — Question 70

A field exists in search results, but isn't being displayed in the fields sidebar.
How can it be added to the fields sidebar?

Answer options

• A. Click All Fields and select the field to add it to Selected Fields.
• B. Click Interesting Fields and select the field to add it to Selected Fields.
• C. Click Selected Fields and select the field to add it to Interesting Fields.
• D. This scenario isn't possible because all fields returned from a search always appear in the fields sidebar.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as clicking 'All Fields' allows you to select the desired field and add it to 'Selected Fields,' making it viewable in the sidebar. Option B is incorrect because 'Interesting Fields' does not allow you to add fields to 'Selected Fields.' Option C is also wrong, as it suggests moving fields in the opposite direction, and option D is false since not all fields are automatically displayed in the sidebar.
