Ingesting Sample data Log from GitHub repo to Sentinel

Copper Contributor

I am trying to ingest the Sample data logs from the Azure GitHub repository, GitHub link (https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Sentinel/tree/master/Sample%20Data)

 

I am trying to ingest the Fortinet firewall logs in CEF format in the form of a CSV file, GitHub link  (https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Sentinel/blob/master/Sample%20Data/CEF/FortinetFortiGate.csv ).

 

I see majorly the log files are either .csv or .jason format. 

 

Can somebody help me in an easy way to ingest these Sample data logs to sentinel. 

 

Thanks, Much Appreciated.

CSV files can be ingested as a Watchlist, as an alternative. You will then query the watchlist rather than a Table.

Also see https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-sentinel-blog/new-ingestion-sampledata-as-a-service...
Working on this. Let me see.
I did try this option and it worked. However, after entering the respective GitHub URL of the sample log data, and running the Test, I am getting an error as "PUT action failed".

the sample log path from GitHub I am trying to ingest is: https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Sentinel/blob/master/Sample%20Data/CEF/Forcepoint%20Cloud%20Security%...

Upon running the Test, getting an error as "PUT action failed". Also, if I click on the Ingest, i am getting the same error.

please guide further on this.

I do not have experience with Github URLs. 

Several times we used *.csv and *.log (text) files to ingest custom logs into Sentinel and it worked well.

This PowerShell command imports a PowerShell object into Sentinel, so if you can create a PowerShell object with data from the GitHub link, it will work.

 

I am not good with PowerShell.

I have done all the setup for the GUI based ingestion.
For AkamaiSIEM logs, i was able to ingest but not able to ingest any other one. I am Getting the same error as "PUT action failed" every time i try to run the Test.

Need help in resolving the issue. is there any limitation with the input here? is it only one input allowed per 24 hours or in a day ?

There is no input limitation. You can ingest logs once a day or every 10 minutes.
