Description
The Splunk Core Certified Power User (SPLK-1002) certification validates an intermediate level of proficiency with Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud. It is designed for users who already understand the basics of Splunk and now want to extend their skills to creating knowledge objects, enriching data, and building more sophisticated dashboards and alerts. Earning this credential demonstrates that you can take raw machine data and transform it into actionable insights for operations, security, or business intelligence teams.Splunk’s value increases dramatically when users know how to go beyond simple searches and create reusable components. The SPLK-1002 exam measures your ability to normalize data, build and maintain knowledge objects, apply advanced SPL (Search Processing Language) commands, and design dashboards for broader audiences.
Key knowledge areas include:
-
Advanced Searching & Reporting: using subsearches, transforming commands, and field extraction for richer results.
-
Data Normalization: applying lookups, field aliases, calculated fields, and event types to structure machine data.
-
Knowledge Objects: creating and managing tags, macros, workflow actions, and data models for reuse across apps.
-
Advanced Alerts: building multi-condition alerts, throttling notifications, and integrating alert actions.
-
Dashboards & Visualizations: designing multi-panel dashboards with drilldowns, tokens, and advanced visual components.
-
Search Optimization: applying best practices to improve performance and reduce resource consumption.
-
Permissions & Sharing: controlling access to saved searches, reports, and dashboards for different user roles.
By preparing for SPLK-1002, professionals develop the ability to design, automate, and scale Splunk searches and reports, making them more valuable to teams that depend on timely, accurate insights. This certification positions you for roles such as Power User, Splunk Developer, Security Analyst, or Operations Specialist, and serves as a foundation for advanced Splunk certifications such as Core Certified Advanced Power User or Enterprise Certified Admin.
