Hi,

Seems like you have changed the Add-on folder name into axe_sec_nessus_inputs which might have broken the add-on rest API. Can you try to use the add-on with default folder name and see if things go through successfully.

That got most of the way. I now see data coming into index nessus, specifically sourcetype=nessus:plugin. Unfortunately, I do not seem to be getting any sourcetype=nessus:scan data.

Searching for index=internal sourcetype=ta:nessus:log again gets me the following data for the run today:

Regenerating the API key after renaming the folder resolved the issue. Thank you for your suggestion!
