Splunk Core Certified User — Question 83

How can another user gain access to a saved report?

Answer options

• A. The owner of the report can edit permissions from the Edit dropdown.
• B. Only users with an Admin or Power User role can access other users' reports.
• C. Anyone can access any reports marked as public within a shared Splunk deployment.
• D. The owner of the report must clone the original report and save it to their user account.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the report owner has the ability to change permissions through the Edit dropdown, allowing others access. Option B is incorrect as it implies only specific roles can access reports, which is not the case when permissions are edited. Option C is misleading because it does not address individual report permissions and can be overridden by the owner. Option D is also incorrect since cloning a report is unnecessary if permissions are adjusted properly.
