Stream logs to Splunk
DataStream 2 supports sending logs to Splunk. It is an interface that lets you search, monitor, and analyze your data.
Depending on your choice, DataStream 2 can upload either uncompressed or compressed log files.
Before you begin
To use Splunk as a destination for your logs, you need to:
- Set up an HTTP Event Collector instance (HEC), create a token, and enable it. Set up an HEC instance that matches the type of Splunk software you use. See Set up and use HTTP Event Collector in Splunk Web.
- Save the HEC token that you enabled, and the URL for your event connector. The URL structure depends on the type of your Splunk instance. See Send data to Event Collector.
