The Send to Syslog Server action sends a message with the action results summary to syslog and optional messages with the device data for each of the devices in the query results as a JSON file. It sends a JSON file with data about the system entity queried, for queries created on Activity logs and Fetch History using filters.
To use this action, you must enable the Use Syslog setting and configure a Syslog host and port. For more details, see Global Settings.
To configure the Send to Syslog Server action, do as follows, from the Action Library, click Notify, and then click Send to Syslog Server.
The message includes:
