I want to forward logs in CEF format from Splunk to a 3rd party system over TCP. To achieve this, I'm using Splunk app for CEF.

I tried the generated query in the search & it's working fine. I tried reinstalling the app but the error is still the same.

Appreciate any help I can get. Also i'm open to alternative methods to forward alerts in CEF format from Splunk to external systems over TCP.
