Heroku https drain to splunk enterprise

Does anyone have luck processing heroku's https drain to a on-prem Splunk Enterprise indexer?

I'm currently using its syslog drain but want to add encryption and heroku https drain seem to be the only way.

From what I tell we'll need to setup a intermediate web server to process the https post from heroku, default splunk enterprise doesn't seem to have direct ingestion on http post.

Any recommendation is appreciated. Thanks

Answering my own question. We ended up using a simple nginx server setup to just relay all the https POST into log files, and have a generic splunk universal forwarder on the nginx host to send the log over.
