Hi, Guys! I'm Splunk engineer 😄

The Question is

Associated with the Light forwarder and Indexer, When transferring data after filtering settings(props.conf, transforms.conf) Indexer from Light Forwarder . => Only the filtered data is applied to the license?

I'm confused as to what your "Splunk Engineer" title is supposed to mean. Are you the guy in the project with the most Splunk knowledge?
