Hi

Have you tried this?

https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/5189/

Unfortunately it didn't contains real documentation, but maybe it's useable?

I think that you should setup heavy forwarder (as this contains python) where you should install and run this. Then add outputs.conf to forward events to the Splunk Cloud or your intermediate / gateway forwarder(s) to the Splunk Cloud.

You should test this first with your own test environment instead to forwarding events directly to splunk cloud. Also it's a good habit to create own App (if there are needed some modifications e.g. props.conf, transforms.conf etc.) and ask Splunk Cloud support to install it to your splunk cloud account.

Hi All,

Need help MuleSoft is using setup heavy forwarder (as this contains python script)  to forward the event .

But the concern is that it stops sending logs and need to restart .Is  there better way that we can implement mulesoft or is there any App or Add-on .

current Splunk version 7.3.

kindly assist in resolving the issue.

@manojkumjha you can try setting up HEC and sending logs from Mulesoft using mulesoft cloudhub runtime.

I have used the HEC approach for this integration where mulesoft was able to send the logs through log4j splunk appender. @isoutamo
