Hi all,
I am just learning Splunk because the need for applying our addon to be cloud vetted ( therefore I really don't know much splunk development yet, but need to get this done soon) . It is an addon to connect to our server and pulling in logs. Each pull would have to auth first, therefore we save token locally so only need auth once for certain interval ( lifetime of the token). But that won't do for cloud based addon. (" Storing authentication token in checkpoint which is not allowed in Splunk cloud. Please don't store such sensitive information")
Any other way I can save token for addon functionality purpose? . I heard mentioning of storage/passwords endpoint, is that only for user credential or it can be used for saving application token as well?
Thanks in advance! I searched whole day, still not clear the direction.
