Which of the following commands is used to display fields in a specified order?

  1. sort

  2. table

  3. fieldformat

  4. order

The correct answer is: table

The command used to display fields in a specified order is indeed the table command. This command is specifically designed to format search results into a table layout, allowing you to select which fields to display and in what order. By using the table command, you can control the exact fields that appear in the results and arrange them according to your preferences, providing a clear and organized view of the data. While the other commands listed have their purposes—such as sort, which rearranges the entire dataset based on values in a specific field, fieldformat, which modifies the presentation of field values, and order, which is not a recognized command in Splunk—the table command is the ideal choice for explicitly displaying fields in a controlled sequence.
