The Dispensary Overview

Welcome to our Cribl self-guided demo! This course, Overview - The Dispensary, is an interactive introduction to Cribl Stream's user experience. In this course, we explore Cribl's repository of pre-packaged Stream / Edge configurations (known as Packs): The Dispensary.

This course should take about 10 minutes to complete. At the end of the course, you can optionally continue on with some of our How-To's, or check out any of the other courses at https://sandbox.cribl.io

This sandbox instance stays running for 24 hours, after which you can get a new sandbox, but your progress will be lost. To reconnect to the sandbox, just come back to The Dispensary and re-enter your email address.

Getting Help

Login

Stream should automatically log you in, but if you're idle for too long, or get disconnected, it's possible you'll be prompted for a login. The Username is admin and the Password is cribldemo. You might want to store these to a text file or paper now, just in case.
