Monitoring Splunk

Connect HEC token to Monitoring Console

wpb162
Explorer

We get data in using HEC tokens, and the data is flowing just fine. But when we try to view the HTTP Event Collector panel under Indexing > Inputs, it says we have no tokens configured. How do we configure the MC to see the existing tokens?

I believe the tokens must be defined on the MC.  You should be able to do that by copying inputs.conf from a Search Head to the MC and restarting the MC.
