Authentication Error

Hi,

I receive the following error (splunk _internal log):

 action=create_thehive_alert STDERR -  theHive server returned following error: 401 Client Error: Unauthorized

The URL I configured in the alert is: http://IP:9000/api/alert

I checked the credentials in the config file and everything is correct.

A call via curl below works also

curl -XPOST 'http://http://IP:9000/api/login?user=usr&password=passwd'

Any Ideas?

Thanks and kind regards

Correction: the curl command has only one http:// of course and that one works 😉
