What are the predefined ways Knowledge Objects can be shared in Splunk?

When considering how Knowledge Objects can be shared in Splunk, it's important to understand the predefined scopes available for sharing, which include "Specific App," "All Apps," and "Private."

Sharing a Knowledge Object in "Specific App" means that it will be accessible only within that designated app. This allows for a tailored experience where objects can be customized and managed within the context of a particular application without impacting other apps' configurations or modifications. This is especially useful in environments where different teams or projects operate within their own apps, ensuring that Knowledge Objects like saved searches, event types, or fields are only relevant to the users working within a particular application context.

While the other options mention different scopes for Knowledge Object sharing, they do not capture the breadth of flexibility offered by "Specific App." For example, "All Apps" allows Knowledge Objects to be shared across all apps, which may not be suitable for all users or use cases due to the potential for clutter or irrelevant data for individual applications. Meanwhile, "Private" restricts access solely to the user who created the object, limiting collaboration opportunities and shared visibility.

Thus, the option indicating sharing within a "Specific App" is indeed one of the predefined methods for Knowledge Object sharing, focusing on targeted accessibility
