Splunk Alert with run a script action












1














Is there any way to run external script with source IP (source IP of device which sent alert to splunk, host= value in event) address as variable?
There is in splunk documentation few variables but non of them are host.
I need to trigger config download from Solar Winds upon change of config. All syslog messages are sent to splunk. So when alert is triggered it would run script ./update $SOURCE_HOST
