Agent Launchpad data handling and retention

Agent Launchpad uses Splunk Cloud Services (SCS) to run agents. When you use Agent Launchpad, certain data is sent to SCS for processing, while other information remains stored in your Splunk platform deployment.

For information about usage data collected by AI Toolkit, see Share data in the AI Toolkit.

Data sent to Splunk Cloud Services

When you use Agent Launchpad, the following information is sent to the agent running in Splunk Cloud Services (SCS):

  • LLM connection metadata and credentials.

  • MCP connection metadata and credentials.

  • User prompts and system prompts.

Connection credentials are used by the agent in SCS when needed but are not stored in SCS.

Data stored

Agent Launchpad stores data in the following locations:
