How is a variable for a macro defined?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

In Splunk, a variable for a macro is defined by placing the variable name inside dollar signs, like this: $variable name$. This syntax allows the macro to dynamically replace the variable with the appropriate value when the macro is invoked within a search. Using this method ensures that the search strings can be dynamically adjusted based on the variable's value at runtime.

Ugh, I hate it when they try to be 'clever' with these exam questions. Can't they just ask something straightforward for once?

I'm pretty sure it's option C. Dollar signs make the most sense for defining a macro variable.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be dollar signs instead of curly braces.

I agree with Alecia, it makes sense to use curly braces to define a variable for a macro.
