We are working on automating the installation and configuration of Splunk DB Connect.  For the purposes of this question we are using DB Connect version 3.6.0 My question is how does the identity.dat file get generated.  We know it gets generated on a fresh DB Connect install the first time an identity is created manually.  Our issue is the DB Connect API endpoint for creating identities returns a 200 OK when creating an identity for the first time - but it does not get created and no identity.dat file is generated. If after a fresh install of DB Connect we manually though the UI add an identity - the identity.dat file is successfully generated.  We are then able to hit the endpoint to create identities and it creates them correctly. The endpoint that we are hitting is:   /servicesNS/nobody/splunk_app_db_connect/db_connect/dbxproxy/identities   The payload that we are uploading to the endpoint is formatted as such:   def output(self): data = {} data["name"] = self.db_identity_name data["username"] = self.db_username data["password"] = self.db_password data["disabled"] = self.disabled data["domain_name"] = self.domain_name data["use_win_auth"] = self.use_win_auth return data   ...
