Set a default App

You can set a default App per user. This App displays by default every time you log into Splunk.

Configuration

1. Create a file called user-prefs.conf in the user's local directory:

$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/<user>/user-prefs/local/user-prefs.conf

2. Add the following to the user-prefs.conf file: 

<pre>default_namespace = <App>

For example, set the default App for the admin user to the Search App:

1. Edit

$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/admin/user-prefs/local/user-prefs.conf

. For the test user, it would be in

$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/test/user-prefs/local/user-prefs.conf

2. Add the following:

default_namespace = Search
