var http = new splunkjs.ProxyHttp("/proxy");
the error that i am getting is
Can any once send me working sample ? for external web server.
Many Thanks,
Shachar
Hi Shachar,
By default, browsers don’t allow cross origin communication (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy). I suggest that you follow an approach similar to what is in the UI examples that are shipped with the Splunk SDK for JavaScript, i.e. go through a proxy -
var http = new splunkjs.ProxyHttp( "/proxy" );
In addition to that, since your webserver is different from where Splunk is running, you will also need to tell your web server to handle these proxy requests and delegate them to the right address, i.e. Splunk’s management port.
For Apache, adding these 2 lines to httpd.conf does the trick.
SSLProxyEngine On
ProxyPass /proxy/ https://localhost:8089/
Hope this helps.
