# Configure log and notification forwarding

You can send management audit logs, integration logs or guard rails log notifications to a syslog server.

{% hint style="warning" %}

### Prerequisite

To forward logs and notifications to a syslog server, you must first add the syslog server. To add a syslog server, go to **Settings & Info** → **Settings** → **Integrations** → **Syslog Servers** → **New Server** and enter the required configuration parameters.
{% endhint %}

1. Navigate to **Settings & Info** → **Settings** → **System** → **Notifications** → **Add Forwarding Configuration**.
2. Enter a name and a description for the configuration.
3. From the **Log Type** list, select the option.
   * Management Audit Logs
   * Integration Logs
   * Guard Rails
4. Click **Next**.
5. Define the scope.

   To select a subset of the selected logs, click the filter button, select the relevant filters, and perform a search. For example, if you want to forward only notifications related to API keys, click the filter button, select **Type**, and then select the **API Key** value.
6. Click **Next**.
7. Select the syslog server.
8. Click **Save**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xsoar-8-on-prem/8.12/troubleshoot-and-reference/troubleshoot/configure-log-and-notification-forwarding.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
