The license file only needs to be installed on the License Manager (your SHCD).  Sign in to the Deployer and go to Settings->Licensing.  Then click the Add License button and follow the prompts to upload to copy-paste the license file.  That's it.  Once the new license is installed, you'll see it on the License page.

Create an authentication token for the API user and give them only that.  Without a password (which must be defined, but doesn't have to be disclosed), the user cannot log in to the UI.

Hi there, I am confused about the configuration steps for getting data in from Salesforce. Adding a Salesforce account, I want to use OAuth, but I am only a Splunk Admin, the configured technical user to be used is managed by our Salesforce Admin. My understanding is, that either one of us needs to have the capabilities as an admin on both instances to make it work? What we tried: Configuration of the user on Salesforce-side from another account, which is an Salesforce admin. Configuration of the add-on on Splunk-side with my admin account. The redirect link has been added to Salesforce, I tried to setup the add-on on Splunk as explained in the documentation of add-on for salesforce, but an error occurs after trying to connect them. Another hindrance is the use of LDAP. To make it work, I would need to give Salesforce admin Splunk admin capabilities or the other way around, I would need to get Salesforce admin rights. But that is something we do not want as the capabilities should remain as it is: Splunk for Splunk, Salesforce for Salesforce. Is there any other way to make it work, with the use of a technical user? Or is it just not possible with OAuth?   Best regards

Hi, I am currently working on an Adaptive Response that notifies us whenever there is a Notable in our queue of a certain urgency. The notification must include rule title and its configured urgency. I've been trying to solve this with the Add-On Builder but so far only managed to pull the rule title via helper.settings.get("search_name"). I tried to get the urgency with get_events() but that only seems to contain the details of the correlation search. Does anyone have a pointer of what Im missing?

I've tried to test this, but it did not work for me. The whole search was blocked and did not return any data.  No need to dig in further here, as I had anyway to turn upside down the whole dashboard to solve performance issues. This turning upside down has also solved the issue discussed in here.

I know this is an old post - but I also had this issue because the app creation in Splunk on-prem 9.2.1 puts the icon in the wrong place.  I opened up the browser inspector, turned off the cache, and watched for the png requests. From there I saw it was trying to get appname/static/appIconAlt_2x.png. I made the png at that location and I can see the preview now. Happy Splunking!

Thanks for the observation. The problem is that, even if I comment the highlighted row, the event of clicking the submit button works only the first time I click, the following times it doesn't event print "CLICKED". I'm more interested in solving that issue, because I don't understand why it is working like that.

currently we have Splunk enterprise 9.1.4 with 1 deployment server, 1 deployer (SH cluster), 2 cluster managers, 6 indexers (2 in each site), and 3 SHs (1 in each site), basically a 3 site cluster.

Please help me with how to renew the license from the file which I will receive from my management? and do we need to push it to all other nodes or is it already configured? where to check is it configured or not? how to check is renewal successful or not?

Hello, I am working with Splunk Security Essentials, and in the Analytics Advisor, there is a MITRE ATT&CK Framework dashboard which is not being populated, as can be seen on the screenshot, despite finishing the Data Inventory Introspection, and in other places I can see the data exists. Data models are also populated but most are not accelerated except of Authentication data model. This is a production environment and definitely has data. There should be some "Available" content there.
Actually did some further testing, but users with admin privileges seem to be immune to permissions in terms of editing apps. So for now there is no way to disallow admins to write to apps.
Yes seems that there is only a workaround available by using a non-used role. Although I do not know if this would in fact create issues up the road, we'll see!

Hi @Cheng2Ready , I agree with @isoutamo , to help you s mandatory your code. Anyway, the eval command that you need to create the host variable value from the two tokens, has a different syntax: | eval host=$server$."-".$appnumber$ in addition remember that the "-" char in Splunk means minus, so your eval understand that it must subtract $appnumber$ from $server$.
