Is there any guide out there that would help in successfully configuring the Sophos Add-on for Splunk?

I have successfully downloaded and installed the Sophos Add-on for Splunk. Now I am attempting to configure it and am encountering nothing but trouble. The implementation guide is of no help and none of the documentation on here is of any help. The only output I am getting is "Splunk cannot find the flashtimeline view". I did some searching on Splunk answers and the solutions proposed did not help. I am not sure what I can do in order to get this working?

Thanks.

Can you say more about the steps you have taken? Are you following the instructions in the Splunk Add-on for Sophos documentation? Is that the "implementation guide" you mentioned?

Sorry to hear the docs haven't been helpful. Can you identify where in the configuration process you ran into problems? What were you trying to do when you saw that error message, and what were you doing right before?

I followed the steps according to the .pdf titled: "AddOns-released-Sophos.pdf" from the following url: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/apps/#/page/1/search/Sophos/order/relevance. I am to the point where I am just going to create my own reports and uninstall/disable this particular add-on unless by some miracle I can get this working.

Thanks for your time,
Tom

This app is completely useless. Don't bother with it.
