Provide much, much more details on what you are trying to accomplish, what you did so far, what doesn't work etc etc.

Do you mean as a data input? To understand about how to feed data to Splunk, see the Getting Data In manual. Whether you have local data or remote data, this manual is the place to read about data sources and inputs.
