By using Agent and depending on the Splunk Instance (Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud Platform):
Splunk Forwarder (Splunk already has a blog that talks about these and it is actually quite good )
Universal Forwarder
Heavy Forwarder
SC4S (Splunk Connect for Syslog) or
This will explain what is the difference and when to use
You should know the configuration file structure and its core file ( you can read more about it)
The configuration file precedence priority: local/system configuration -> app configuration -> default configuration:
1. System local directory — highest priority 2. App local directories 3. App default directories 4. System default directory — lowest priority
Because of this file precedence so the Splunk Documentation suggests that you shouldn't mess with the default configuration file -> because when you make changes to files that are under /system/local which has the highest priority, it will 100% make changes to the UF.
If you using Splunk Universal Forwarder then you will be at this file path %SPLUNK_HOME%/etc/local/system/inputs.conf (%SPLUNK_HOME% is your Splunk install directory)-> which will store the configuration of input (things or logs you want to collect, whether it is a file or a stream of data)
The syntax is very simple you can take a look at the Splunk documentation, you should read it carefully.

source = XmlWinEventLog:Microsoft-Windows-Sysmon/Operational The [default] is the global configuration for all inputs in this file, so if you specify index = <your desire index> then all the inputs will go that index. You can specify each input to have a different index to forwarder to.
