Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Azure


BREAKING CHANGE: version 4.0.0 removed the deprecated event hub input. Use the Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Cloud Services to collect event hub data. Refer to the CHANGELOG for more detail.


The Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Azure collects data from Microsoft Azure including the following:

  • Azure AD Data
  • Azure Log Analytics (KQL)
  • Metrics
  • Estimated billing and consumption
  • Inventory metadata
    • Resource Groups - Resource group configuration
    • Virtual Machines - VM, Disk, Image, and Snapshot configurations
    • Network Watcher
    • Virtual Networks - VNET, NSG, and Public IP configurations
    • Managed Disks
    • Subscriptions - Subscription name, ID, and type
    • Topology - IaaS relationships
  • Azure Security Center
    • Alerts
    • Tasks
  • Azure Resource Graph

This add-on contains the following alert actions:

  • Stop Azure VM - stops an Azure Virtual Machine.
  • Add member to group - adds a user to a group. This can be useful if you need to enable additional policies like MFA based on search results.
  • Dismiss Azure Alert - dismisses an Azure Security Center alert.

Note:

Version 3.0.0 and later of the Microsoft Azure Add-on for Splunk is compatible only with Splunk Enterprise version 8.0.0 and above.
