Thanks for the help guys. Feels like I'm getting closer as no longer getting host not resolve but still getting this as a return: <!doctype html><html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1;url=https://prd-p-xxxxx.splunkcloud.com/en-US/services/collector/event"><title>303 See Other</title></head><body><h1>See Other</h1><p>The resource has moved temporarily <a href="https://prd-p-xxxxx.splunkcloud.com/en-US/services/collector/event">here</a>.</p></body></html> Tried with /services/collector (no /event) but same result. Maybe the end point has changed? I was bit confused by the documentation which had prefix's for the URL of input or http-inputs depending on whether I'm using self service or managed (I am using a managed trial service at the moment).

Hi, I'm very new to splunk and have signed up for a trial account and am looking to connect with HTTP Event Collector using simple Curl commands. Following the docs here : https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/8.0.2007/Data/UsetheHTTPEventCollector I've set up my new token using the default configuration. I'm certain I'm using the managed service as I don't have any access to global settings. According to the above docs to make calls using curl the endpoint is <protocol>://http-inputs-<host>:<port>/<endpoint> however I can't get anything other than curl: (6) Could not resolve host: http-inputs-<hostname>.splunkcloud.com Do I need to enable something in my account so this host becomes available? I'm using my login URL (from the screenshot below) as the hostname. That is correct yes?
