    Antes de Iniciar

    Decide on the appropriate authentication method for your instance:
    • Basic authentication is preferred for self-hosted (On-Prem) Cribl instances.
    • Token-based authentication is required for Cribl Cloud instances.
      Nota:
      Token-based authentication is also supported for self-hosted (On-Prem) Cribl instances.
    For token-based authentication, create a client ID and a client secret on your Cribl instance and use them to generate a token. For example:
    • Client ID: 1234567890abcdef
    • Client secret: abcdef1234567890

    For detailed information on the Cribl API, refer to the Cribl API documentation.
