I am using Splunk forwarder (not HEC) and want to know if I can send data to multiple indexes.
If yes, how?

Using HEC, it is really easy (because you do not need to fight the fishbucket), just do multiple post calls. Is this not working for you?

Are you trying to index same data in multiple indexes?

you can send data to multiple indexers.
In order to do it, you have setup the outputs.conf like the sample below and deploy this file to your UF clients using the deployment server.

[tcpout]
defaultGroup = indexers

[tcpout:indexers]
server = 10.1.1.197:9997, 10.1.1.200:9997, 10.1.1.201:9997

For further information, please check this document -> https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.0/Admin/Outputsconf#outputs.conf.example
