How do I get data from a website (browser console logs) to Splunk using the JavaScript SDK?

[arunsakthi]

Hi,

How do I get data from a website about errors, debug logs (console.log) to Splunk? I have used the Javascript SDK and the issue is with how the credentials need to be passed. It's like posting my Splunk credentials so openly. Is there a way for me to get the data from website to an on-premises Splunk (Like Splunk MINT for mobile devices)?

Thanks,
Arun

What about using the HTTP event collector?

You can use a token to write to the event collector that has no privileges (other than to write to the collector). And you could easily rotate/invalidate tokens over time if you need to.
