Misner Splunk Tool

Connects to a Splunk Enterprise or Universal Forwarder instance via REST API, retrieving the instance's configurations, input status, apps, and other useful information for troubleshooting and analysis. This tool's intention is to grant easy access into remote Splunk instances where shell or web access may not be available, but the splunkd management port (default 8089) is accessible.
