Guidance on Using ZincSearch and API Calls for OpenObserve Cloud
TLDR YULL was initially confused about making API calls to OpenObserve Cloud while working on a technical test involving ZincSearch. Prabhat clarified the distinction between ZincSearch and OpenObserve cloud and advised on how to proceed.

Fri, 03 Nov 2023 18:10:10 UTCActually, apparently I'm solving a technical test where they ask me to use ZincSearch, and I already managed to do it from localhost, but I thought they were asking me to make a direct request. It was my confusion, but now I understood that I am on the right track in my test.

Prabhat
Fri, 03 Nov 2023 18:11:47 UTCthere is no cloud service for it
YULL
Fri, 03 Nov 2023 18:12:33 UTCYes, what I did, I even managed to do the index and search, I just thought I could do it directly in OpenObserver. I was guided by your video, so thank you!
