The ACS API lets you:

For ACS API requirements, see Admin Config Service (ACS) requirements and compatibility matrix.

For information on how to set up and use the ACS API, see Basic setup and usage concepts for the ACS API.

For ACS API endpoint details, see the Admin Config Service (ACS) API endpoints reference.

For details on how to use the ACS CLI to run ACS operations, see Administer Splunk Cloud Platform using the ACS CLI.

For ACS API troubleshooting help, see Troubleshoot ACS error messages.

For information on new ACS features, see Admin Configuration Service in Release Notes.

Splunk Cloud Platform supports a Terraform Provider for ACS API operations, including IP allow lists, HEC tokens, indexes, users and roles. You can use the Terraform Provider to manage your infrastructure as code. To access the Splunk Cloud Platform Terraform Provider (terraform-provider-scp), see the Terraform registry.
