Send events to Imply Lumi
To get started quickly, upload a file to Imply Lumi.
Use the HTTP event collector (HEC) when your event forwarding infrastructure is one of the following:
- You use the Splunk® OpenTelemetry Collector.
- You plan to send structured events using HTTP requests.
With heavy forwarders, you can send events to Imply Lumi using the Splunk ingest action for event routing to S3.
If you already send events to Splunk® using universal or heavy forwarders, you can configure Splunk TCP to send events to Imply Lumi.
