How can I download Universal Forwarder Credentials?

tkoch — Tue, 09 Aug 2016 12:43:48 GMT

The link doesn't seem to work:
/en-US/dj/splunkclouduf/ufpackage

Returns with 404.

Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Tibor

You have to access it from your company's network from what I remember...

I meant /en-US/dj/splunkclouduf/ufpackage, but I've found a workaround:

sorry the editor filters out brackets, so it's INSTANCE_NAME/en-US/dj/splunkclouduf/ufpackage

Login to your Splunk instance, and go to Universal Forwarder link which looks something like this,
[Customer Cloud Stack URL]/en-US/app/search/splunkclouduf?earliest=0⪭st=

Example:
https://prd-p-5dnv2v9jjfrp.cloud.splunk.com/en-US/app/search/splunkclouduf?earliest=0⪭

Change the URL to below, by replacing splunkclouduf from the URL with setupuf:
[Customer Cloud Stack URL]/en-US/app/search/setupuf?earliest=0⪭st=
and then download the credentials.

Hope this helps!
