Setting up Splunk App for Akamai

[amanediel]

Hi,
We need to setup Splunk app for Akamai in our environment, But I am unable to do so following the Splunk documentation. I am unable to understand some of the steps.
Kindly help. I don't need the Splunk documentation's links. If someone who has done it can help, that would be really appreciated.
We have 1 search head, 2 indexers and >50 forwarders in our environment.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Install Akamai App and Add-on on your search head and enable 'akamai-cp_codes-lookup_gen' saved search by clicking on settings->Searches, reports, and alerts to avoid any warnings and you should see a built-in Dashboard visualization for Akamai. You can modify the dashboard panels as per your requirement.

Let me know if you have any other queries.

Thanks,
Sai

Can you clarify where you are getting stuck? Which steps are you not able to understand or perform?

Even I am getting 401 error on Akamai side.When sending data.I can not even look through any of the logs.X-splunk-request channel is necessary for 7.1.2 ,because I saw in the documentation that it is not necessary for greater than 6.7
