Saviynt Data Export to Splunk - Local Authentication Alternative

[pradiphari]

Hi All,

We are following https://saviynt.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/43000666823-splunk-integration-guide to integrate Saviynt with Splunk for log data export. As per document, we have to install Splunk EIC Add-on and will have to provide Saviynt local username and password in the Splunk application to access Saviynt APIs. Is there a way we can use outh2.0 authentication instead local auth for this integration?

Regards,

@pradiphari ,

The basic auth you give for the API User is to generate the access token to fetch the audit data from the Saviynt EIC. The creds will be used to make the API call ECM/api/login endpoint and we use the ouath token generated to make subsequent call.

Thank you, Sagar. I wanted to check if Splunk add on is supporting the Oauth authentication instead of using local user.

As per documentation it says Basic Auth only.
