https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-to-upload-a-file-folder-from-a-remote-machine-to-Splunk/m-p/169587#M2256 <P>I want to upload a file/folder from a remote machine using a java program to Splunk on a local machine. I have created the connection with Splunk, but I couldn't figure out how to upload it. Splunk requires that the path of the file/folder to upload be local. Also, if possible, is there a way to do it without sharing the directory?</P> Wed, 12 Aug 2015 19:25:19 GMT srinath1691 2015-08-12T19:25:19Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-to-upload-a-file-folder-from-a-remote-machine-to-Splunk/m-p/169587#M2256 <P>I want to upload a file/folder from a remote machine using a java program to Splunk on a local machine.

The work around that I did was to transfer files from the remote machine to the machine where Splunk was installed using Java (Socket programming) and then uploaded the files to Splunk. Hope it helps.</P> Tue, 25 Aug 2015 19:05:39 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-to-upload-a-file-folder-from-a-remote-machine-to-Splunk/m-p/169588#M2257 srinath1691 2015-08-25T19:05:39Z
