i tried following the guide here:
Configure Dashboards Trusted Domains List - Splunk Documentation
and run :
curl -k -u admin:$password$ https://mysplunk.com:8000/servicesNS/nobody/system/web-features/feature:dashboards_csp -d dashboards_trusted_domain.exampleLabel=http://jenkins/
and got: 
curl: (56) Received HTTP code 403 from proxy after CONNECT
i tried running it on the splunk master and on some of the search heads and it didn't work.
also tried 
editting :
/etc/system/local/web.conf with:
[settings]
dashboards_trusted_domains = http://jenkins https://jenkins
and still the same error

 

what am i doing wrong?

thanks in advanced to helpers!

Hi @dorHerbesman ,

at first, you must edit the web-features.conf file not web.conf.

Then you should try a value for each row:

[feature:dashboards_csp]
enable_dashboards_external_content_restriction = true
enable_dashboards_redirection_restriction = true
dashboards_trusted_domain.endpoint1 = http://jenkins
dashboards_trusted_domain.endpoint2 = https://jenkins

as you can read at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.3.2/Admin/Web-featuresconf#web-features.conf.example

Ciao.

i have tried pasting your code into /opt/splunk/etc/system/local/web.features.conf of my splunk master instance and restarting it (including rolling-restart) and no luck. maybe i should put it somewhere in my shcluster/apps? any other suggestion?

Hi @dorHerbesman ,

beware web-features.conf not web.features.conf, but maybe it's a mistyping.

Anyway, what do you mean with Splunk master instance?

you have to do this on the Search Heads, not on other instances.

Ciao.

i did it on each search head separately and it worked!

too bad there's no way to do it from the master and deploy it them but atleast it works.

thanks for the help!
