*** Important: Read upgrade instructions and test your add-on update before deploying to production ***
Version 2.0.0 of the Splunk Add-on for Salesforce introduces breaking changes. To avoid data loss or data duplication, follow the documented upgrade instructions in detail. If your are upgrading an earlier version of the Splunk Add-on for Salesforce, a best practice is to test your update in a non-production environment before deploying to production.

The Splunk Add-on for Salesforce allows a Splunk software administrator to collect different types of data from Salesforce using REST APIs. The data includes:

* Event log file data, https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/using_resources_event_log_files.htm.
* Output of Salesforce object queries (SOQL). 

This add-on provides the inputs and CIM-compatible knowledge to use with other Splunk apps, such as Splunk Enterprise Security, the Splunk App for PCI Compliance, and Splunk IT Service Intelligence.
