Splunk Observability Cloud Alert Action for Splunk

The "Splunk Observability Cloud Alert Action for Splunk "  install does not make a reference to adding an observability API Token; however, when testing, the event fails with this error on the _internal log:  observability_api_token is a mandatory setup parameter, but its value is None.

 

Where is this token defined?

Hi @mnegron1 

The Splunkbase app page shows the following instructions:

  • Click the "Apps" drop down and select "Splunk Observability Events" to configure your Splunk Observability API Token.
    • Note: Make sure you are using an Ingest token and not a personal API token.

Although Ive tested this and it takes you to an empty dashboard. You need to navigate to
