Once you install the app, you will need to setup a show. To do this, open the Slideshow app and specify the views that you want to include in the rotation.
You can save a show in order to load it later. However, this ability will only be available on hosts that support the KV store. KV store will not be available if:
* You are using a version of Splunk before 6.2
* You are using a 32-bit build of Splunk
* KV store has crashed
The app will still work without KV store support; it just won't include the ability to save your slide-show.
