Create deployment apps

A deployment application (app) consists of any arbitrary content that you want to download to a set of agents. The content can include:

  • A Splunk Enterprise app (such as those on Splunkbase)
  • A set of Splunk Enterprise configurations
  • Other content, such as scripts, images, and supporting files

You add a deployment app by creating a directory for it on agent management. Once you create the directory, you can use the agent management interface to map the app to agents.

You can add to or change the content of an app at any time, when you initially create the directory, or later, when you're ready to deploy or redeploy the app to agents.
