Create HEC in indexer cluster

Hi,

I'm trying to configure HEC in our indexer cluster which doesn't have any HFs.

Could anyone tell me about the process?

I also read some community answers and documents that we create the tokens in CM and distribute to indexers.But i'm quite new to such process.

Any detail steps are very much appreciated.
