Hello, I am looking into using splunk to monitor sql server backups, can the splunk app for SQL do this?, can’t see the source type in the release notes.

Tell us more about your use case and we may be able to tell if and how Splunk can help you.

Most apps are not good about documenting their sourcetype, but one can always download the app and look inside the props.conf file.  You don't have to install the app.
