We have two addon built by addon builder 1.0.1 and when we scan with python readiness app, these  addons are failing. We are running with splunk 8.1 and like to know if there is any way covert these addons to python3 without much rework.

As with any script, the amount of work needed to convert python2 to python3 varies heavily on what python features are used in the script. Some scripts can probably be converted automaticaly, some need manual work. It's hard to make general asumptions.

What I'd try in the first place is check whether there are newer versions of the apps you use that are python3-compatible so you could just upgrade the app.

The Python Readiness app will offer suggestions to make the scripts compatible with Python3.  After running a scan, click on the app then click on "Show Issues".

python readiness app is suggesting to update latest python sdk but we are already running with splunk 8.1.2 and the custom addon is working without any issue. Do we need to update the sdk.
