I've installed this on a Splunk box running 7.3.1. Initially, the first scheduled CURL input worked, with a simple URI of the following:

https://api.ssllabs.com/api/v3/analyze?host=mydomain.com

I cloned this input, changing the domain in the URI, and the additional input didn't function. I deleted all inputs, and tried again, and still wasn't successful. I've also removed the Webtools app, and re-installed it, which didn't work. I do see these errors in the internal logs, if they're helpful:

2020-01-21 10:09:07,236 ERROR pid=115445 tid=MainThread file=base_modinput.py:log_error:307 | Get error when collecting events.
Traceback (most recent call last):

if len(payload)>0:
TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

Running curl with SPL does work correctly, and one of the inputs did work at one point. I'm not inserting any headers, or anything special.

Any ideas?

Yeah - that was my first check - but I can do the curl from the server, or with SPL via this add-on from the same device. I'm assuming it isn't that based on testing.
