I can find plenty of information on rest API calls if using Linux and enterprise but when it comes to windows and cloud all I find is this small doc with little to no real information.

Does anyone have information on making a rest call to Splunk cloud using encrypted authentication from windows?

Hey bobmccoy,
You need to enable the Splunk REST API and SDKs, submit a support case on the Support Portal to request access.
Refer this doc:

Let me know if this helps!!
