Hi @Praz_123 

This might highlight issues with getting data in to Splunk Cloud, but not necessarily issues outside the cloud environment itself.

What I meant by this is that you could have issues elsewhere that would not by captured here, for these you might want to create searches which checks that you are receiving the volume of events expected in a period of time, per index. This means if something slows down, or there are bottlenecks elsewhere that this can be detected. I personally use TrackMe app for this as it monitors all my sources and detects a number of issues - however you can do this yourself with some simple searches.
