While Connect the Splunk Using Service.connect am getting 401 error due authentication getting failed. I have to pass session key or token on login post method header. Am striking with getting session key/token. Can you resolve this by with out using Curl

Code:

Service service = new Service("XX.XXX.X.XXX", YYYY,"http");
service.login("XXXXXX", "YYYYY);

Error:

Can you try:
ServiceArgs loginArgs = new ServiceArgs();
loginArgs.setUsername("username");
loginArgs.setPassword("password");
loginArgs.setHost(host);
loginArgs.setPort(Integer.parseInt(port));
Service.connect(loginArgs);
