createLocalClusterConnection()

The createLocalClusterConnection() GraphQL mutation field is used to create a cluster connection to a local view. The feature, MultiClusterSearch has to be enabled. This is a preview and might be changed later.

Syntax

Below is the syntax for the createLocalClusterConnection() mutation field:

graphql
createLocalClusterConnection(
       input: CreateLocalClusterConnectionInput!
    ): LocalClusterConnection!

Below is an example of how this mutation field might be used:

Raw
graphql
mutation {
  createLocalClusterConnection(input:
         {multiClusterViewName: "my-cluster",
          targetViewName: "humio",
        } )
  { id }
}
Mac OS or Linux (curl)
shell
curl -v -X POST $YOUR_LOGSCALE_URL/graphql \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d @- << EOF
{"query" : "mutation {
  createLocalClusterConnection(input:
         {multiClusterViewName: \"my-cluster\",
          targetViewName: \"humio\",
        } )
  { id }
}"
}
EOF
Mac OS or Linux (curl) One-line

        } )
  { id }
}"
}
EOF
Windows Cmd and curl
