When trying to connect to the Splunk SDK, Python throws me this error:
[Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed
My code:
import splunklib.client as client
HOST = "localhost:"
PORT = 8000
USERNAME = "username"
PASSWORD = "password"
# Create a Service instance and log in
service = client.connect(
host=HOST,
port=PORT,
username=USERNAME,
password=PASSWORD)
Throwback error is as following
