Getting Data In

Why are AWX and HEC not working?

Hello,

Newish to splunk here.

We have an AWX instance (free Tower) and we are trying to send the logs to splunk using this link:

ansible-logs-splunk

All is good there.  I can do a tcpdump and see data going out to port 8088 on my splunk management server.

I used this link to set up HEC on Splunk Enterprise 9.0.2:

HEC

I can run the curl -k ..... test and get:  RETURNS: {"text":"Success","code":0}

So things seem ok.  When I try a search, I get nothing.  We've using the default index.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Aaron
