Hi,

For our AWS lambda services, we will need to send events to a Splunk Cloud instance. While installing Splunk HTTP Event Collector logging interface for JavaScript (https://github.com/splunk/splunk-javascript-logging), we got this error:

npm install --save splunk-logging

I assume Splunk Cloud is supported?

Requirements

Node.js v4 or later. Splunk logging for Javascript is tested with Node.js v10.0 and v14.0.
Splunk Enterprise 6.3.0 or later, or Splunk Cloud. Splunk logging for Javascript is tested with Splunk Enterprise 8.0 and 8.2.0.
An HTTP Event Collector token from your Splunk Enterprise server.

Could you please investigate this issue? Why is there a connection to 127.0.0.1:4873?

Kind regards,

Moacir
