Solution: Initiated fresh install of Splunk_TA_snow because upgrading the app gives the same error. We’ve found out there are conflict for the following apps (splunk_app_addon-builder, Splunk_TA_microsoft-cloudservices, TA-defender-atp-hunting). After removing these apps, Splunk_TA_snow is now working as expected.

Hi @greentemplar, How did you determine the conflict (or figure out which ones were conflicting)? Any idea what the root cause is/was?

Thanks!
