Drucare Web terminology

⌘K

The Drucare platform GUI is called “Drucare Web”. The UI elements in Drucare Web have specific names.

When logging in to Drucare Web, you typically begin at the Search Summary page. After running a search, you view the search results on the New Search page. You can also go to other pages in the app, which usually contain lists of datasets, reports, alerts, and so on. These pages vary depending on the app. For the Search & Reporting app, you can navigate to the DatasetsReportsAlerts, and Dashboards pages or return to the Search page.

Search Summary

The Search Summary page includes common elements that you see on other pages, including the Applications menu, the Drucare bar, the Apps bar, the Search bar, and the Time Range Picker. Elements that are unique to the Search Summary are the panels located after the Search bar: the How to Search panel, the What to Search panel, and the Search History panel.

The Search Summary page on Splunk Web contains multiple frequently referenced UI elements. The following table describes each element, numbered on the image.
