Pivots can be saved as which type of panels?

  1. Reports panels

  2. Dashboards panels

  3. Visualization panels

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Dashboards panels

Pivots can be saved as dashboard panels because they allow users to create visualizations and summaries of data that can be displayed on a dashboard. Dashboards are designed to provide a consolidated view of various data sources and insights, making pivots a perfect fit for this use case. When you save a pivot as a dashboard panel, you can take advantage of Splunk's visualization capabilities, allowing users to monitor key metrics or trends in an intuitive manner. This enhances the usability and accessibility of the data, as users can easily interact with and explore the insights generated by the pivot. Reports panels are typically associated with saved search results and scheduled reports rather than visualizations stemming from pivots. Visualization panels, while related to displaying data, do not specifically denote saving the output of a pivot into a dashboard format. Therefore, saving pivots as dashboard panels serves to ensure that the visualizations are readily available for ongoing analysis and monitoring by users.
