Hi
Just starting to try Splunk with https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.2/Data/UsetheHTTPEventCollector#Configure_HTTP_Even...
when I do a
curl -k https://input-xyz.cloud.splunk.com:8088/services/collector/event -H "Authorization: Splunk blah" -d ' { "index": "summary", "event": "blah blah blah ","sourcetype": "_json" } '
I get
{"text":"Success","code":0}
but the "Data Summary" shows nothing except "Waiting for results...
"
Thanks
Thanks for your help:
I used the example from https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Data/HECExamples#Extract_JSON_fields_example and https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Data/HECExamples#Explicit_JSON_fields_example and both work fine.

Thanks for your answers.
index = "summary" returned nothing.
Settings -> Data Inputs -> HTTP Event Collector -> Token / input was set to "Default"; I changed it to summary, curl-ed again. But still nothing 😞
Have you searched index=_internal source="*splunkd.log"
?
index=_internal source="*splunkd.log" shows:
ERROR JsonLineBreaker - JSON StreamId:1 had parsing error:Unexpected character while looking for value: 'b' - data_source="http:ABCS", data_host="input-xxxx.cloud.splunk.com:8088", data_sourcetype="_json"
when I change the data to
-d '{"event": "hello world"}'
I get
ERROR JsonLineBreaker - JSON StreamId:0 had parsing error:Unexpected character while looking for value: 'h' - data_source="http:ABC", data_host="input-xxx.cloud.splunk.com:8088", data_sourcetype="_json"
According to your curl command, you specified the index as "summary," however you can also look at the token you created and see which index it is associated with. (Go to Settings -> Data Inputs -> HTTP Event Collector -> Token / input) and you should see the index associated there.
Does index=summary
return results?
