Hi All,

I got into a error while setting up Microsoft Azure Add on for Splunk. Everything seems to be correct on configuration stands point but getting below error in internal logs .

_Splunk_ error collecting event hub data: Token authentication failed: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 0: invalid continuation byte

Any words are much appreciated.

Thanks,
