This is enforced in the backend code in the modular input (https://github.com/LukeMurphey/splunk-website-monitoring/blob/master/src/bin/web_ping.py) which will reject attempts to make an input that uses HTTP on Splunk Cloud and will refuse to run inputs on Cloud (in case the user crated an input manually via inputs.conf). |
