In Strata Cloud Manager, click Log Viewer from the left
navigation menu.
Log Viewer provides a centralized interface to view and interact
with log records collected by your Palo Alto Networks devices and stored in
Strata Logging Service. It provides the same capabilities as the standalone
Strata Logging Service Explore app, and serves
as an audit trail for system, configuration, and network events.
With Log Viewer, you can:
- Retrieve logs—Access log records by specifying log type and time range.
- Query and filter—Use a query builder with auto suggestions and
supported field values to narrow results. Filter by column headings and save
frequently used queries.
- View log details—Examine detailed information for each log entry.
- Export logs—Export all log types to a compressed CSV file in GZ format.
Exported logs are always in UTC.
- Organize views—Customize column display in the log table and save preferred
settings, including time range, saved queries, and Directory Sync Service
instance.
- Troubleshoot—Investigate security events and identify issues.
- Contextual access—Jump directly from dashboards to relevant logs, with
queries pre-filtered for context.
- AI-assisted workflows—Use Strata Copilot to act on Log
Viewer search queries. You can prompt Strata Copilot to search for IOCs, search the
configuration, navigate to areas in Strata Cloud Manager, mark apps as
sanctioned, and quarantine devices.
