Configure cloudgateway.conf

To modify the Splunk Cloud Gateway configuration, create a cloudgateway.conf file in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_cloudgateway/local.

Here's a sample cloudgateway.conf file:

# sample cloudgateway.conf for configuration of Splunk Cloud Gateway App
# file should be located in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_cloudgateway/local

[setup]
# Set address of the Cloud Gateway service.  By default it is set to prod.spacebridge.spl.mobi
spacebridge_server=prod.spacebridge.spl.mobi

# This controls the log_level for application logs, by default this is set to INFO
# If you need more detailed logs set to DEBUG
log_level = INFO

# This setting controls the interval in which the Search Head will query if it is the Captain in a SHC
# The Splunk Cloud Gateway App currently processes all requests through the Captain in a SHC
cluster_monitor_interval = 60

[websocket]
# When a websocket disconnects reconnection code retries with expential back-off to a maximum value
# The reconnect_max_delay is the maximum reconnection delay in seconds, default is 60s
reconnect_max_delay = 60

[subscription]
# The subscription_manager_modular_input will run for a period defined by the manager_lifetime_seconds configuration before restarting the process
# The default lifetime is 3600s 
manager_lifetime_seconds = 3600

# The subscription_manager_modular_input will poll new subscription requests from clients at an interval defined by the manage_interval_seconds
# The default interval is 0.1s.  If the Search Head instance is not performant this may be an option to reduce API calls to the host.
manager_interval_seconds = 0.1

# [dashboard]
# The dashboard_list_max_count setting will limit the number of dashboards returned in the dashboard list API
# If the dashboard list is timing out on clients this a helpful setting to limit the returned dashboards
# This is primarily a setting you would set while debugging an issue
# dashboard_list_max_count = 100
