Note that this feature is currently available for Splunk Cloud customers only. Check out this doc for a high level overview of the feature: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/latest/Data/DataIngest#Use_KMS_encryption_.28Splunk_Cloud_Platform_only.29

In conjunction with the “Create New Destination” Wizard in the Ingest Actions UI, you should navigate into your AWS console, and do the following:

Log into your AWS account
Navigate to IAM > Roles
Click Create Role
Click Another AWS Account
In the Role Name field, type exactly the name of SplunkIngestActions and click Create role.
Click SplunkIngestActions.
Under the Permissions tab, click Add inline policy.

26. ]
27. }
28. ]
29. }

Click the JSON tab
Overwrite the JSON text by copying and pasting the Permission Policy from the Splunk Ingest Actions UI (this is visible in the 2nd part of the Ingest Actions “Create New Destinations” wizard after selecting “KMS encryption”). See an example Permission Policy below.
Click Review Policy.
In the Name field, type any name of your choice, such as SplunkIngestActions.
Click Create policy.

Overwrite the JSON text by copying and pasting the Trust Relationship from the Splunk Ingest Actions UI. See Example Below.
Click Update Trust Policy.

Note:

These steps reflect the Ingest Actions UI and AWS console at the time of this writing. Both interfaces may change over time.
