We're receiving the error below repeatedly when trying to integrate Splunk with Crowdstrike using the provided Splunkbase add-ons. The API credentials are correct and the Crowdstrike tenant is populated with some detections and incidents. Please advise.

We experienced this exact error without much of explanation. But the Add-On documentation states the following in the Troubleshooting Section:

Ensure that the Event Stream API has been enabled for the CID

The Crowdstrike API Documentation agrees and states the following for Event Streams, specifically if you're a GovCloud customer.

After opening up a ticket with Crowdstrike and asking them to enable the event streams on our CID, the error cleared up and logs began to populate.
