topic Scripted input strange behavior in Splunk Dev https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/Scripted-input-strange-behavior/m-p/461597#M8398 <P>Good to all,<BR />I have a strange behavior of a python script. The specific python script collects some AWS data. if I run it as it is, it works nicely. If I run through Splunk's python (bin/splunk python) it also runs. If I schedule it, I get errors related to access to AWS.<BR />Especially with the second try (via Splunk's python) I had the impression that I could "emulate" how it will run when it is going to be enabled but appears that that is not the case.<BR />Is there any other way to troubleshoot this?</P> Sun, 07 Jun 2020 18:09:32 GMT a_naoum 2020-06-07T18:09:32Z Scripted input strange behavior https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/Scripted-input-strange-behavior/m-p/461597#M8398 <P>Good to all,<BR />I have a strange behavior of a python script.
