The Splunk Datasets Add-on provides an intuitive interface to build, edit and analyze table datasets (tables) without SPL. After you install it, tables become a seamless part of your Splunk user experience.
 
With the Splunk Datasets Add-On, you can:
-           Build tables with initial data from source types and indexes, searches, or existing datasets.
-           Quickly shape your tables to fit your analysis and reporting requirements, without needing to learn or use complex SPL.
-           Maintain tables over time or share them with others and let them take the tables in new directions.
 
Splunk Enterprise customers should install the Datasets Add-on as part of any installation of Splunk Enterprise 6.5.x until 8.0.x. The Splunk Datasets Add-on is preinstalled with Splunk Cloud instances of version 6.5.x or later and Splunk Enterprise (on prem) 8.1 or later.
