Import data from REST APIs in Splunk Cloud

[Cerum]

So I'm trying to use #splunkcloud to make calls to a Restful API for which there is no add-on or app available on Splunk Base.   There is nothing under Settings>Data Inputs>Local Inputs to accomplish this task...which kind of blows my mind.  Anyone find a solutions for this or something similar?  TIA

Splunk does not have an out-of-the-box REST input.  You have to install an app for that.  There are a number of apps on splunkbase that support REST so perhaps you can use one of them as a model for building your own app to the API in question.
