Getting Data In

Cannot create token or find realm

I try to import into the Observability platform, but I fail to follow your documentation.

This page, https://docs.splunk.com/observability/en/admin/authentication/authentication-tokens/org-tokens.html#..., says Settings - Access Tokens exists, but it doesn't. (My home page https://prd-p-a9b9x.splunkcloud.com/en-US/manager/splunk_app_for_splunk_o11y_cloud/authentication/us...).

Settings - Tokens exists, but it doesn't create tokens with scopes. I don't know if that's a documentation error or an application error.

I then tried running the code at https://docs.splunk.com/observability/en/gdi/other-ingestion-methods/rest-APIs-for-datapoints.html#s..., which says I need a realm. And a realm can be found at "your profile page in the user interface". But it's not in User Settings and it's not in Settings - User Interface.

Your documentation doesn't seem to match your application. Am I on the wrong page, or your docs years out of date? Please help.

Splunk isn't one product. It is split all over the place. You have to sign up for each product separately. The homepage signs you up to splunk cloud not splunk observability.

 

To fix this, sign up for observability separately.
