Hi,
Should I sent event logs to HttpEventCollector in GZip encoding or only in plain text ?

@arielgilad Splunk excepts the HEC data to be ingested in json by default.

@Roy_9You're talking about event formatting while @arielgilad means transfer encoding.

@arielgiladI suppose it does. Try and see.
