Splunk MINT Add-on: What is the token I need to pass to configure data collector authentication?

[rajgowd1]

Hi,
i just installed Splunk MINT Add-on and I am trying to configure data collector under data inputs->default

this is the value i passed
MINT Data Collector Token

[[Mint sharedInstance] initAndStartSessionWithAPIKey:@"1ec71f8b"];

after passing when i search, getting the below error

2016-12-14 16:45:14,161 CRITICAL [mi_base.py] Modular input [mi_cds://default] failed: [Data Collector authentication exception '('Connection aborted.', gaierror(11004, 'getaddrinfo failed'))']

what is the exact token i need to pass?

Start here with MINT Overview and complete Steps 1 -7 under How do I monitor mobile apps with Splunk MINT? Before you can pull data into Splunk, integrate SDKs and confirm data at MINT Management Console. Once projects are setup, continue with Set up the Splunk MINT Add-on to pull data from the MINT Data Collector process.

[croyal_splunk]

Log in to MINT Management Console.
Click Account > Account Info, and then click Usage.
Under MINT Data Collector token, click Generate Token if a token has not yet been generated.
Copy the token string.

The token string should look something like this: MINT Data Collector Token: 673c93x4c90ac044z147b8b
