What Stacksync syncs in Splunk.

These objects sync between Splunk and any connected system, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution. Custom fields are picked up from the live schema where Splunk exposes them.

Search Results
SPL searches dispatched via POST /services/search/jobs return a search ID (SID); results are pulled from /services/search/jobs/{sid}/results once the job completes, or synchronously via oneshot/export mode. The primary read path for streaming indexed events out to a warehouse.
Saved Searches
Scheduled searches, reports, and the definitions behind alerts at /services/saved/searches with full create, update, and delete. Read out for governance and coverage review, or provisioned and updated from a config source.
Fired Alerts
Triggered alert instances listed at /services/alerts/fired_alerts; alert configuration (conditions, schedule, actions) lives on the corresponding saved search. Landed in a database for alert-trend and detection-coverage reporting.
KV Store Collections
App-scoped, MongoDB-backed key-value collections at /servicesNS/{owner}/{app}/storage/collections/data/{collection} with full CRUD and batch endpoints. Genuinely bidirectional lookup/state store — read records out or write records in.
Indexes
Index inventory and settings (retention, max size, event counts) via /services/data/indexes, with create and edit; loaded into a database for capacity, retention, and data-onboarding tracking.
HTTP Event Collector
The write-in path: POST events and metrics to /services/collector (port 8088, or 443 on Splunk Cloud) authenticated with a per-input HEC token, so external records are indexed alongside logs for search and correlation.
Users and Roles
Accounts at /services/authentication/users and role/capability definitions at /services/authorization/roles, with full CRUD; exported for access reviews or provisioned from an identity source of truth.
Dashboards
Simple XML dashboard and view definitions at /servicesNS/{owner}/{app}/data/ui/views; exported for backup and audit, or created and updated programmatically from version control.
API surface

How Stacksync connects to Splunk.

The connector runs on Splunk's native API. Stacksync manages authentication, rate limits, retries, and schema changes so your team does not maintain integration code.

Connection
REST API (management API + HTTP Event Collector)
Authentication
HTTP Basic (username/password), or a session key from POST /services/auth/login sent as Authorization: Splunk <key>, or a bearer authentication token (Authorization: Bearer <token>). The HTTP Event Collector uses its own per-input token (Authorization: Splunk <hec-token>). Management API defaults to port 8089; HEC to port 8088 (443 on Splunk Cloud).
Change detection
Time-range searches over indexed events (earliest/latest on _time or _indextime); events are immutable once indexed, so incremental extraction advances a time cursor rather than a modified-date CDC feed. Config objects such as saved searches and KV Store are polled; alerts can push via a saved-search webhook action.
Rate limits
The management REST API throttles through search-concurrency quotas — max concurrent searches per user and role, plus per-CPU historical search limits in limits.conf — rather than a fixed per-request rate; exceeding quota queues or blocks jobs. HEC has per-token and per-instance throughput limits, and Splunk Cloud adds ingestion and API limits on top.

Use cases

What teams run on the Splunk connector.

Splunk is the system of record for machine data in security and IT operations — logs, metrics, and events indexed for search, alerting, and dashboards, owned by SOC analysts, SREs, and Splunk admins. Its APIs run both ways: teams run SPL searches and read fired alerts, saved searches, indexes, and KV Store data out for retention and reporting, and also push events in through the HTTP Event Collector and create or update saved searches, alerts, dashboards, and KV Store records over the management REST API.

  • Security engineers / SOC analysts
  • SRE / observability engineers
  • Splunk administrators
  • DevOps engineers
  • IT operations / compliance
  1. Stream the results of scheduled SPL searches into Snowflake or BigQuery to retain and analyze indexed events beyond Splunk's index retention window.

  2. Sync fired-alert history and saved-search definitions into Postgres so security and reliability teams query alert trends and detection coverage in SQL.

  3. Ingest application, CRM, or database records into Splunk via the HTTP Event Collector so operational data lands alongside logs for correlation and dashboards.

  4. Read and write KV Store collections to keep Splunk lookups — asset inventories, allow/deny lists, enrichment tables — in sync with an external source of truth in both directions.

  5. Provision and update Saved Searches, alerts, and Dashboards from a Git-backed config repository so detections and reports stay versioned and consistent across search heads.

  6. Export Users and Roles into an IAM database for periodic access reviews, or provision them from an identity source of truth.

FAQ

Splunk connector FAQ

What can I sync with the Splunk connector?

Splunk's core objects — Search Results, Saved Searches, Fired Alerts, KV Store Collections and custom fields — can sync with any of 302 other systems. Every integration is real-time and bidirectional, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution.

How does Stacksync connect to Splunk?

Via REST API (management API + HTTP Event Collector), authenticated with HTTP Basic (username/password), or a session key from POST /services/auth/login sent as Authorization: Splunk <key>, or a bearer authentication token (Authorization: Bearer <token>). The HTTP Event Collector uses its own per-input token (Authorization: Splunk <hec-token>). Management API defaults to port 8089; HEC to port 8088 (443 on Splunk Cloud).. Changes are detected as follows — time-range searches over indexed events (earliest/latest on _time or _indextime); events are immutable once indexed, so incremental extraction advances a time cursor rather than a modified-date CDC feed. Config objects such as saved searches and KV Store are polled; alerts can push via a saved-search webhook action.. Stacksync manages rate limits, retries, and schema changes automatically.

Is the Splunk connector two-way?

Yes. Changes made in Splunk propagate to the connected system and vice versa, in milliseconds. One-way flows are also supported when a direction should stay read-only.

How long does a Splunk integration take to set up?

Most Splunk integrations go live in minutes: authenticate Splunk and the other system, pick objects and fields, and enable the sync. No code and no infrastructure to manage.

Is Splunk data secure in transit?

Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA compliant. Splunk data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means records are not retained after a sync operation.
