Splunk for Blue Coat ProxySG: why can't I import using a universal forwarder?

I am using Splunk Add-on for Blue Coat ProxySG.
I can successfully import using GUI.

However, using universal forwarder does not work.
Does anyone know anything?

I think that the commented out part does not work well.

Please add the following settings to props.conf on the forwarder side.

[bluecoat:proxysg:access:file]
INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS = w3c

”INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS” is an item to set at the ”input” stage.
In the case of standalone, if you install add on, you can import the log as it is, but when using forwarder it is necessary to separate the setting values to right phases.
