Any help is appreciated, I want to create an add-on for Adobe Experience Manager, but I don't have any sample data.

Please let me know about any tips.

Hi @Rocky31,

For creating a Technology Addon, you have to create an app which will work as TA (Technology Addon) "Adobe Experience Manager". Please check links to how to create TA.

You can use "Splunk Add-on Builder" also.

Here I want know to about what kind of data (from Adobe Experience Manager) you are going to collect using this TA? Using "Splunk Add-on Builder" provides", you can configure a data input using a REST API call, using a shell command, or writing Python code. Check below link for more information regarding same.

I hope this will help you.

I converted this to an answer because it's really very good and answers the question as asked.

I wonder why you would want to try to build an app (which I applaud and THANK you for!) for an app you don't have? Unless - UNLESS you need to actually create some sample data out of regular data you have?

Otherwise, I'd suggest taking the free Splunk Fundamentals I course (Free from here) to perhaps formulate the question a bit differently.
