Enable Logpush to Sumo Logic

Cloudflare Logpush supports pushing logs directly to Sumo Logic via the Cloudflare dashboard or via API.

​​ Manage via the Cloudflare dashboard

Enable Logpush to Sumo Logic via the dashboard.

To enable the Cloudflare Logpush service:

  1. Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard.

  2. Select the Enterprise account or domain you want to use with Logpush.

  3. Go to Analytics & Logs > Logs.

  4. Select Add Logpush job.

  5. In Select data set, choose the dataset to push to a storage service, and select Next.

  6. In Select data fields:

    • Select the data fields to include in your logs. Add or remove fields later by modifying your settings in Logs > Logpush.
    • In Advanced Settings, you can change the Timestamp format (RFC3339(default),Unix, or UnixNano), Sampling rate and enable redaction for CVE-2021-44228.
    • Under Filters you can select the events to include and/or remove from your logs. For more information, refer to Filters. Not all datasets have this option available.
  1. In Select a destination, choose Sumo Logic.

  2. Enter or select the HTTP Source Address. Note that the same collector can be used for multiple Logpush jobs, but each job must have a dedicated source.

  3. Select Validate access.

  4. Enter the Ownership token (included in a file or log Cloudflare sends to your provider) and select Prove ownership. To find the ownership token, select Open in the Overview tab of the ownership challenge file.

  5. Select Save and Start Pushing to finish enabling Logpush.

Once connected, Cloudflare lists Sumo Logic as a connected service under Logs > Logpush. Edit or remove connected services from here.

​​ Configure a Hosted Collector

Cloudflare can send logs to a Hosted Collector with HTTP Logs & Metrics as the source. Once you have set up a collector, you simply provide the HTTP Source Address (a unique URL) to which logs can be posted.

Ensure Log Share permissions are enabled, before attempting to read or configure a Logpush job. For more information refer to the Roles section.

To enable Logpush to Sumo Logic:

  1. Configure a Hosted Collector. Refer to instructions from Sumo Logic.

  2. Configure an HTTP Logs & Metrics Source. Refer to instructions from Sumo Logic. The last step indicates how to get the HTTP Source Address (URL).

  3. Provide the HTTP Source Address (URL) when prompted by the Logpush API or UI.
