Hey,

I am trying to do log forward as mentioned in Log Forwarding for AEM as a Cloud Service | Adobe Experience Manager but not sure where can i get value for "authHeaderValue"

authHeaderName: "X-AEMaaCS-Log-Forwarding-Token" authHeaderValue: "${{HTTPS_LOG_FORWARDING_TOKEN}}"

 Thank you

    Hi @balasai_nikhilka2 

    This will be the token you will get from the SPLUNK instance where the logs will be forwarded.

    Create a file named logForwarding.yaml. It should contain metadata, as described in the config pipeline article (kind should be set to LogForwarding and version set to “1”), with a configuration similar to the following 

     

    kind: "LogForwarding" version: "1" metadata: envTypes: ["dev"] data: dynatrace: default: enabled: true host: "dynatrace-host.example.com" token: "${{dynatrace_token}}" index: "AEMaaCS"

     

     

    Logging Destination Configuration

    Configurations for the supported logging destinations are listed below, along with any specific considerations.

    HTTPS

     

     

    kind: "LogForwarding" version: "1" metadata: envTypes: ["dev"] data: https: default: enabled: true url: "https://example.com/aem_logs/aem" authHeaderName: "X-AEMaaCS-Log-Forwarding-Token" authHeaderValue: "${{HTTPS_LOG_FORWARDING_TOKEN}}"

     

     

    So HTTPS_LOG_FORWARDING_TOKEN need to passed to place where we send logs. (ex: dynatrace or splunk.) from AEM.
