# Sumo Logic

Sumo Logic is a cloud-native, secure, centralized log analytics service that provides insights into logs through pre-built applications, identifying patterns to show outliers in the behaviors of applications and systems.

This guide shows you how to configure and test outbound webhooks for Sumo Logic.

***

## Prerequisite

* [Configure an HTTP Logs and Metrics Source (collection)](https://help.sumologic.com/docs/send-data/hosted-collectors/http-source/logs-metrics/) for the Apono app and copy the **HTTP Source Address** you get after saving the new collection
  * Set **Message Processing** to **One Message Per Request:**\
    ![](/files/w0yIZS4tOWPWUFtyU77b)
* Copy the Apono app [collection JSON configuration](https://help.sumologic.com/docs/send-data/use-json-configure-sources/local-configuration-file-management/view-download-source-json-configuration/)

***

## Configure a webhook

Follow these steps to configure a webhook:

1. On the [**Webhooks**](https://app.apono.io/webhooks) page, click **Add Webhook**. The **Add Webhook** page appears.
2. Click **Request Webhook**.
3. Enter a unique, alphanumeric, user-friendly **Request Webhook Name** for identifying this webhook.
4. Click the **Status** toggle to **Active**.
5. From the **Method** dropdown menu, select **POST**.
6. For the webhook **URL**, enter the HTTP Source Address.
7. In the **Body Template** field, paste the [collection JSON configuration](https://help.sumologic.com/docs/send-data/use-json-configure-sources/local-configuration-file-management/view-download-source-json-configuration/) for the webhook payload.

{% hint style="success" %}
Click **View event's payload schema** to reveal the payload schema and available data fields. You can also refer to the [Webhook Payload Schema Reference](/docs/webhook-integrations/webhook-payload-references/webhook-payload-schema-reference.md) to read the descriptions of each data field.
{% endhint %}

8. From the **Triggers** dropdown menu, select one or more of the following event triggers, which correspond to Apono access request statuses:
   * **RequestCreated**
   * **RequestApproved**
   * **RequestExpired**
   * **RequestFailed**
   * **RequestGranted**
   * **RequestRejected**
9. Under **Filters**, define one or several filters from the listed dropdown menus.

{% hint style="info" %}
Filters empower admins to control the data transmitted via webhooks, minimizing the amount of data third-party tools receive and reducing unnecessary clutter.

**Examples**:

* Send only production requests to your admins' Slack channel.
* Trigger Okta workflows for events from specific integrations or resource types.
* Open a ticket in Jira or ServiceNow for manually approved requests.
  {% endhint %}

11. (Optional) In the **Timeout in seconds** field, enter the duration in seconds to wait before marking the request as failed.
12. (Optional) Define **Response Validators** to verify that the response from the webhook meets specified criteria:
    1. Click **+ Add**. A row of settings appears.
    2. Starting with *$.data.*, enter the **Json Path** of the JSON parameter.
    3. In the **Expected Values** field, enter a value and press the Enter key on your keyboard.
    4. Repeat step **c** to add several expected values.
    5. Repeat steps **a-d** to add multiple response validators.
13. Click **Test** to generate a test event to trigger your webhook. A **Test successful** or **Test failed** response status will appear at the bottom of the page. A successful test will send mock data to the target system.

{% hint style="success" %}
For more information about the test, click **View Invocation Data**. A panel opens, revealing the request, response, and other relevant details.

Should your test fail, view these tips to [troubleshoot your webhook](/docs/webhook-integrations/troubleshoot-a-webhook.md).
{% endhint %}

14. Click **Save Webhook**.

The new webhook appears in the **Webhooks** table. Active webhooks are preceded by a green dot. Inactive webhooks are preceded by a white dot.

Apono access request logs will be sent to Sumo Logic based on the triggers you have selected.

***

## Results

Your webhook should now start sending new logs to Sumo Logic once triggered:
