Pass data into spluk using a web service instead of using a forwarder

[janvanautgaerde]

Is there a way to pass log data to splunk without using a forwarder that needs to be installed on a machine e.g. by calling a web service instead?

If you are running 6.3 or later, you can use HTTP Event Collector
