Hi,

I just installed the "App for REST Lookup" https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4253/ on my Splunk 8 SH.

The details talk about a setup screen but I do not see any.

But I see loads of error in the log:

Thank you, that seems to work out of the Box.

Some simple use cases without password ran on the first try.

thx
