Why each option
The Splunk Field Extractor (IFX) utility can be accessed from exactly 3 locations within the Splunk interface.
The Field Extractor utility is accessible from 3 entry points: the Fields sidebar in the search results view, the event actions menu on individual events, and the Settings menu under Fields then Field Extractions.
Four access points do not exist for the Field Extractor; the documented entry points number exactly three within the Splunk Web interface.
Only one access point is not accurate; there are three distinct ways to launch the Field Extractor utility, providing flexibility depending on the user's current workflow context.
Five access points exceed the actual number; Splunk documents exactly three ways to open the Field Extractor utility.
