Hi Vanessa,

At present this is not supported - metadata export and import is restricted to 
system administrators.  Adding the ability for for 'community adminsitrators' 
to export the metadata should be relatively easy.

For what reason do you want to export the data?  If it is for them to export 
metadata, edit it, then send it to you for re-upload?  Or is it for them to 
have a copy of the data for use in other systems, perhaps web pages?

Thanks,

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense.
