# Tutorial: Configure Splunk for CloudConnexa Log Streaming

Use the Splunk AWS add-on to ingest the log files present in your AWS S3 bucket.

## Prerequisites

- Your AWS S3 bucket is configured as per [Tutorial: Configure AWS S3 bucket for CloudConnexa Log Streaming](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/configuration-tutorials/log-streaming/tutorial--configure-aws-s3-bucket-for-cloudconnexa-log-streaming.md)
- Your AWS S3 bucket is configured in the **Log Streaming** section of the CloudConnexa Administration Portal without errors.

## Configure

1. Download and install the AWS add-on for Splunk from Splunkbase. You can find the add-on [here](https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1876).
2. Configure the add-on to use generic S3 input. Refer to [Splunk documentation](https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/released/AWS/S3#Configure_a_Generic_S3_input_using_Splunk_Web).

After configuring S3 generic input, Splunk will scan the bucket periodically, parse files, and save them in the configured index.

## Test

1. Navigate to **API & Logs \> Log Streaming** and click **Send Test Message**.
2. Check that a log file is written to your AWS S3 bucket in response to requesting that a test message be sent in the prior step. The log will appear as `<S3Bucket>/CloudConnexa/<account id>/<hexid>-<YYYY>-<MM>-<DD>-<HH>-<MM>-<xxxx>.jsonl.gz`
3. Log events from the file are parsed and should be visible in Splunk.
