Splunk Developer License Question

fzuazo — Sat, 06 Jun 2020 14:52:29 GMT

Greetings Splunk Community & Mods,

I have a question about the Splunk Dev License.

A little more than a year and a half ago I requested and was granted a dev license using my personal email and Splunk account but that has since expired. I recently requested a new Splunk dev license and received an email explaining that my request was denied due to an inability to verify my eligibility, has something changed ?

Thanks all !

Does your Splunk account have your work email which purchased a Splunk license?

You can request a dev license even if you did not purchase a splunk license.

No, my Splunk account is using my own personal email account.

My employer has indeed purchased Splunk but my employer email is not linked to my Splunk account.

I ran into the same issue as OP by having my Splunk acct set to my personal gmail and not receiving the license. I assumed you didn't have to be a customer either until I updated my account with my work email and got the lic

I think developer license is only for 6 months and will be provided to one individual only once

I believe this is incorrect as others routinely renew their developer licenses.

Never really mentioned which platform this was on.

I’m hoping someone from Splunk can chime with some insight.

I suspect you were rejected when requesting a 50GB Dev/Test license using this link: https://splunk.com/dev-test

These licenses are only available to users who are associated with an account with a paid Splunk Enterprise or Splunk Cloud entitlement. The license approval process for 50GB Dev/Test licenses is completely automated, so if you feel this rejection was in error, you'll need to contact your Splunk sales representative.

The 10GB Developer license (available here: https://dev.splunk.com/enterprise/dev_license ) is available to everyone for non-production use - it doesn't have the same restriction as I suspect led to your rejection previously. Licenses are typically approved within 2-3 business days, but if you haven't heard back by then, please contact us at devinfo@splunk.com
