Splunk App: Trigger LogicHub Stream

This Adaptive Response Action enables users to trigger an On Demand Stream in LogicHub with an alert, notable, etc.

Overview

This Adaptive Response Action enables users to trigger an On Demand Stream in LogicHub with an alert, notable, etc. It's helpful in scenarios where the transmission and processing time of an event is uncertain, for example if you're querying for an event over the last 30 minutes and the event takes 40 minutes to be queryable. LogicHub will miss this event, because it was not available during the 30 minute time window. This action allows you to send a trigger to LogicHub as soon as that event is available in Splunk to ensure LogicHub is automatically triaging 100% of your alerts + notables.
