curl "https://mysplunkserver.example.com:8088/services/collector" \ -H "Authorization: Splunk DF4S7ZE4-3GS1-8SFS-E777-0284GG91PF67" \ -d '{"event": "Hello World"}, {"event": "Hola Mundo"}, {"event": "Hallo Welt"}'. This is the correct curl command to send multiple events through HTTP Event Collector (HEC), which is a token-based API that allows you to send data to Splunk Enterprise from any application that can make an HTTP request. The command has the following components:
The URL of the HEC endpoint, which consists of the protocol (https), the hostname or IP address of the Splunk server (mysplunkserver.example.com), the port number (8088), and the service name (services/collector).
The header that contains the authorization token, which is a unique identifier that grants access to the HEC endpoint. The token is prefixed with Splunk and enclosed in quotation marks. The token value (DF4S7ZE4-3GS1-8SFS-E777-0284GG91PF67) is an example and should be replaced with your own token value.
The data payload that contains the events to be sent, which are JSON objects enclosed in curly braces and separated by commas. Each event object has a mandatory field called event, which contains the raw data to be indexed. The event value can be a string, a number, a boolean, an array, or another JSON object. In this case, the event values are strings that say hello in different languages.

"A heavy forwarder parses data before forwarding it and can route data based on criteria such as source or type of event."
