We are currently running Palo Alto Networks App version 4.2.1 with Splunk 6.2.2.
We are thinking of upgrading to Splunk 6.3.1.
Do we need to upgrade Palo Alto Networks App first?

Hey @wsnyder2 you do not need to upgrade the Palo Alto App first for it to work with 6.3.1 (provided it was configured properly in your Splunk 6.2 environment) .
That said, with the release of the v.5.0.0 of the Palo Alto Networks for Splunk app there is now an upgrade guide:
http://pansplunk.readthedocs.org/en/latest/upgrade.html
Highlights are that there is now a TA (Technology Add-On) bundled with the app - this makes deployment more flexible. That said read the upgrade guide thoroughly as there changes like which index the TA writes to by default (no more "pan_logs" index).
Are you also an Enterprise Security user?

Hello. App version 4.2.1 should work fine with Splunk 6.3.x. However, it hasn't specifically been tested. App version 4.2.2 and 5.0.0 have been fully tested with Splunk 6.3.x.
