# Splunk destination

> This page explains how to set up a Splunk destination.

[Splunk](https://www.splunk.com/) is a data analytics platform designed for searching, monitoring, and analyzing machine-generated data to provide real-time insights and operational intelligence.

To configure a Splunk destination:

* In **URL**, enter the path to the Splunk destination where you want to route data.
* Optional: In **Headers**, specify any headers you want Axiom to send to the destination.
* In **Authorization type**, select one of the following options to authorize requests to the HTTP destination:
  * Select **None** if the destination doesn’t require authorization to receive data.
  * Select **Authorization header** to authorize requests to the destination with the `Authorization` request header, and specify the value of the request header. For example, `Basic 123`. For more information, see the [MDN documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Authorization).
  * Select **Basic** to authorize requests to the destination with username and password, and specify your login credentials.
