The Spotlight comes ready to use with several pre-built dashboard views including O365 Overview and tabs for Exchange, Azure Active Directory, and other O365 applications.

Requirements

  • A configured Azure / Office 365 tenant and API keys as detailed at: /en/4.0/pages/integrations/inputs/o365_input.html

  • A configured Graylog O365 input (see “Configuring an O365 Input” below).

What is Provided

  • Parsing rules to extract 0365 logs into Graylog schema compatible fields.

  • Dashboards

  • Data lookup tables to assist in normalizing 0365 log messages into the Graylog schema

Configuring an O365 Input

  1. On the Select Input drop-down menu, select System menu and then choose Inputs.
  2. Select Office 365 Log Events from the Select Input drop-down menu.
  3. Click Launch New Input.
  4. Assign a node or select Global mode.
  5. Set the Title, Directory (tenant) ID, Application (client) ID, Client Secret, and Subscription Type to correct values for your O365 tenant.
  6. Click Verify Connection & Proceed.
  7. Specify the desired Content Types. Options include: AZURE_ACTIVE_DIRECTORY, SHAREPOINT, EXCHANGE, GENERAL, and DLP_ALL.
  8. Set the polling interval. (Graylog recommends starting with a polling interval of 3 minutes for the System Log API used by the Graylog O365 Log Events plugin.)
  9. This step is optional: Select Store Full Message. (This option consumes additional Graylog ingestion volume and storage requirements but may be required for compliance or other reasons.)
  10. Save the input settings.
  11. If the input does not start automatically, select Start Input to begin retrieving and processing messages from the configured O365 tenant.
