Thanks in advance for any responses...

Scenario: I have a Heavy Forwarder Installed in my AWS environment sending my data to splunk cloud... works fine for any servers in AWS with a UF sending to HF and then to cloud

We have two accounts:
AccountA has a read-only access right assigned for an audit role across all services. And has read-only access to an S3 storage bucket containing all logs... AWS forwarder is an EC2 instance under this account

AccountB has a logging archive role and read-only access to an S3 bucket where all logs from all services are written to the S3 bucket.

what is the best way to configure the add-on to pull the logs from this s3 bucket...

there are so many input options but we tried S3 Inputs/Access Logs/Generic S3 with the account and role...
