Create Splunk APM Integration

We need to provide to ThousandEyes the Splunk Observabiltiy APM url and token to be able to get the traces and represent it as a Service Map. We will be using the credentials from the Splunk Observability owned by ThousandEyes, as the traces will be coming from the OpenTelemetry demo application running in the cloud.

  • In the ThousandEyes platform, navigate to Manage > Integrations > Integrations 2.0
  • Create a Generic Connector with the following details:
    • Target URL: https://api.us1.signalfx.com
    • Custom headers:
      • X-SF-Token: Gtw-MEqWXLAoUERCoYTwkA
      • It will expire after a week after the workshop.
