Hi @shan511 

If the logs are flat text files then it is likely Splunk can ingest them.   A Splunk universal forwarder agent would need to be deployed to the mongodb atlas server (assuming it's a standard server), followed by configuration etc.  Here's the Splunk documentation on gettng data in, which may be where you need to start.

Hope this helps

Hi @yeahnah ,

Mongodb atlas is not an standard server it is fully managed database as a service which wil be hosted on the cloud platform. So ther we cant install splunk forwarder on mongodb atlas.I am looking at mongodb integration with splunk the configuration shld be added at splunk end or mongodb atlas ui end not at server. Do we have any plugin to forward logs from mongodb atlas to splunk?

Hi @shan511 

I just did a quick search in Splunkbase and found the 3rd party Splongo - A MongoDB Connector for Splunk app (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/5104), which may meet your needs.  It looks like it pulls data in from a remote MongoDB instance.

Hope this helps
