Getting Data In

Onboarding AWS Cloudwatch logs

We followed the steps in https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DM/1.8.1/User/AWSAbout to onboard the data from a single AWS account.

During the process onboarding data, AWS account details are input using the UI, following which Splunk generates the Cloud Formation Template. This template has the a DM_ID, DM_Name and few indexes which Splunk generates. Does Splunk have API to script this?

Our DevOps team wants to automate this process.

ps: I was unable to find this in the API documentation.
