Which of the following can a user with WRITE permissions do?

  1. View Knowledge Objects without restrictions

  2. Share Knowledge Objects they own

  3. Access all apps regardless of permissions

  4. Create new applications within Splunk

The correct answer is: Share Knowledge Objects they own

A user with WRITE permissions can indeed share Knowledge Objects they own. This permission level allows users to make modifications to the Knowledge Objects they create, which includes sharing them with other users or app teams. Sharing is a crucial feature in collaborative environments where insights and findings need to be disseminated across teams. In contrast, viewing Knowledge Objects without restrictions typically requires read permissions, which may not be guaranteed with just WRITE permissions alone. Accessing all apps regardless of permissions generally does not apply, as permissions in Splunk are app-specific, and WRITE access doesn’t bypass these controls. Creating new applications within Splunk typically requires higher-level permissions (such as admin or owner) that go beyond WRITE rights, focusing more on the administrative capabilities rather than regular operational duties.
