post/v1/partitions

Request body

namestring required

The name of the partition.

routingExpressionstring required

The query that defines the data to be included in the partition.

analyticsTierstring

The Data Tier where the data in the partition will reside. Possible values are: 1. continuous 2. frequent 3. infrequent Note: The "infrequent" and "frequent" tiers are only available to Cloud Flex Credits Enterprise Suite accounts.

retentionPeriodinteger

The number of days to retain data in the partition, or -1 to use the default value for your account. Only relevant if your account has variable retention enabled.

isCompliantboolean

Whether the partition is compliant or not. Mark a partition as compliant if it contains data used for compliance or audit purpose. Retention for a compliant partition can only be increased and cannot be reduced after the partition is marked compliant. A partition once marked compliant, cannot be marked non-compliant later.

isIncludedInDefaultSearchboolean

Indicates whether the partition is included in the default search scope. When executing a query such as "error | count," certain partitions are automatically part of the search scope. However, for specific partitions, the user must explicitly mention the partition using the _index term, as in "_index=webApp error | count". This property governs the default inclusion of the partition in the search scope. Configuring this property is exclusively permitted for flex partitions.

Example request

{
  "name": "apache",
  "routingExpression": "_sourcecategory=*/Apache",
  "analyticsTier": "continuous",
  "retentionPeriod": 365,
  "isIncludedInDefaultSearch": true
}
