Can I create DCR on a custom Data table?

Brass Contributor

Currently have a custom data table setup to ingest our AWS WAF logs. It is ingesting an enormous amount of data and I need a way to reduce this for the sake of cost. Is it possible to accomplish this with a Data Collection Rule? Do I need to configure a Data Collection Endpoint? 

 

Appreciate any insight.

Hi there

If you are using the aws connector to bring in your logs, you can go to the log workspace > tables > $YOURAWSTABLE > 3 little dots and create transformation. here you can drop the logs you dont need and they wont ingested :)
Hi Clive,
The initial connector was setup with an AWS Lambda PS script that created the custom table in Sentinel and then periodically pushes the logs from an S3 to Sentinel.. How can I confirm whether i'm already on the Log Ingestion API?

If you go from Sentinel --> Settings --> Workspace settings.  Then look at [tables]  if they are (classic) then you are NOT on the right API.   Select "edit schema" to get more info

Here's what I see when I follow those steps and look up the table I want to trim down. I don't see that it's classic.
