Hi paramagurukarthikeyan,

I don't know if this will help you. But I want to let you know that:
The Splunk SDK for Python lets you write Python applications that can interact with Splunk Enterprise. Export searches using the Python SDK can be run in historical mode and real-time mode. They start right away, and stream results instantly, letting you integrate them into your Python application. At my level I don't found the disadvantages about security issues because The splunk sdk for python include to the app will require a common set of arguments that specify things like the Splunk host, port, and login credentials. Follow the link below to learn more.

For other informations that I ignore, please let me know. Thanks
