How can one use Data Manager in Splunk Enterprise

Hi everyone,

I want to ingest logs from applications hosted in cloud (such as AWS, Azure). In our Company we are using Splunk Enterprise. Can Data Manager be used to ingest and filter out logs only pertaining to that application's security in Splunk Enterprise.

Hi @Jayanthan

Data Manager is only available in Splunk Cloud. Please see https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-cloud-platform/ingest-data-from-cloud-services/data-manager-user-manual/1.11/introduction/about-data-manager for more information.

There is a useful page at https://lantern.splunk.com/Splunk_Success_Framework/Data_Management/GDI_-_Getting_data_in which links out to various methods to onboard different datasources.

Thank you @livehybrid

But, I am using Splunk Enterprise. Is there any way to add and filter log from applications hosted the cloud in Splunk Enterprise.
