# Configure log and notification forwarding

Configure log forwarding in Cortex XSOAR 8.13 On-prem.

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 by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xsoar-8-on-prem/8.13/troubleshoot-and-reference/troubleshoot/configure-log-and-notification-forwarding.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
