Hi All,

We are able to successfully index REST API in SPLUNK by both ADD ON Builder and Rest Modular Input(REST_TA).
But these REST APIs are having basic authentication.

We are looking for indexing the REST API which are having token based authentication.

Can anyone of you provide any suggestion regarding this how we can achieve this in SPLUNK(ADD on Builder & REST_TA)

If you're using the add-on builder then you have custom code in a modular input. Modify that code to perform token authentication per the API's documentation.
