Resolution
RESOLUTION
Spotlight on SQL Server Enterprise posts email and password to sign in to "https://api.spotlightessentials.com/auth"
The workaround in this instance was for the network IT team to whitelist the URL "https://api.spotlightessentials.com/auth" allowing a successful sign-in and data upload.
If a connection is not successful, run the attached utility to test the connection:
- Rename the attached contents from SECheck._exe to SECheck.exe .
- Run the command line and redirect the output like this:
- SECheck -u=email@address.com -p=password > output.txt
