# Natural language control for Splunk: search, alerts, and user management via AI
This automation template enables AI agents to interact with Splunk through an MCP server, allowing natural language execution of monitoring tasks, user management, and search jobs. Fully compatible with LangChain and n8n-based AI agents.
## Who it´s for
- SRE engineers using Splunk for monitoring who want to automate routine operations via AI.
- DevOps teams aiming to manage Splunk without writing SPL queries manually.
- AI developers building agents for IT operations with access to logs and metrics.
## What the automation does
- Receives tool calls from AI agents in natural language.
- Translates requests into executable actions: running search jobs, managing users, retrieving alert data.
- Executes operations using Splunk Tool nodes in n8n.
- Returns results back to the agent for further processing or user response.
## What´s included
- Ready-to-use n8n workflow.
- Logic for handling tool calls as an MCP server.
- Integrations with Splunk via Splunk Tool nodes.
- Basic text instructions for setup and adaptation.
## Requirements for setup
- n8n instance with HTTP endpoint support.
- Splunk account with API token and permissions for search jobs, user management, and alert access.
- Familiarity with LangChain and AI agents (for integration).
## Benefits and outcomes
- Reduced time on routine Splunk operations.
- Eliminates need to write SPL queries manually.
- Enables voice or text-based control of Splunk via AI.
- Increases system accessibility for non-technical team members.
- Scalable due to standardized MCP interface.
