How to ingest logs in Splunk from bigquery?

[tankhanandita]

Hi

I have an application hosted on a vendor GCP and the logs of the application are stored in the big query of GCP.

I need to setup Splunk in my infrastructure to monitor the application hosted outside my infra(vendor GCP). Has anyone done something like this? Do you know how can I ingest the logs to Splunk Enterprise?

There are a few ways to onboard data into Splunk.

Install a universal forwarder on the server to send log files to Splunk
Have the server send syslog data to Splunk via a syslog server or Splunk Connect for Syslog
Use the server's API to extract data for indexing
Use Splunk DB Connect to pull data from the server's SQL database.
Have the application send data directly to Splunk using HTTP Event Collector (HEC).
