Source Information

Each source in the Sources tab is represented by a box that displays the following information:

  • Source name
  • Online/Offline status
  • Number of events (logs) ingested from the source
  • Storage size of the logs from the source

Filtering Logs by Source

You can filter the displayed logs based on the selected sources:
