In a set-up where Collectors in host monitoring (agent) mode send data to another Collector in data forwarding or gateway mode, they don't send the data directly to Splunk Observability Cloud back-end. In this case, only the ingest token in the gateway Collector is used, and tokens in the Collectors that are sending data to a gateway are ignored, unless :ref:`they're using the SignalFx exporter <collector-signalfx-tokens>`. Therefore, you only need one valid token for the gateway Collector to see data in Splunk Observability Cloud, and the rest of Collectors could have invalid or expired tokens.

If you want to use the :ref:`signalfx-exporter` for metrics on both agent and gateway, deactivate the aggregation at the Gateway. To do so, set the ``translation_rules`` and ``exclude_metrics`` to empty lists as in the following example.
