Getting Data In

Splunk HEC output group configuration for UI

Hi,

I want to be able to quickly create a HEC token through the UI and assign it to the proper output group. The problem is that none of my output groups show up in the UI despite the fact that they work. If I manually edit the inputs.conf to include "outputgroup=" the data will go to the right group but I don't want to have to do that every time I create a token. Where can I configure output groups such that they will appear in the UI? Currently they are defined in a random app's local/output.conf but I also tried placing them in /splunk_httpinput/local/outputs.conf (and restarting) to no effect.

Thanks

Hi,
I found solution for this. In outputs.conf you have to add disabled=false for each group you want to see in this dropdown
