This can happen when you're trying to send to an index that doesn't exist. You can confirm this by turning on logging to d_hec_debug in /opt/sc4s/env_file and looking at the index-named folder list in /opt/sc4s/archive/debug and confirming all of those indexes exist.
Create the index or update splunk_metadata.csv to change the destination index for a given source key.
Thanks mbonsack in the sc4s community slack channel for the guidance. Posting here for visibility/googling.
