When integrating a new application with your BetterCloud instance, the overall installation process is consistent. However, each integration is different, and may require varying levels and types of authentication. This article provides instructions for configuring and collecting all the information you need in order to add the Sumo Logic integration in BetterCloud.
BetterCloud requires you to enter the following information when integrating with Sumo Logic:
- Username (Access ID) & Password (Access Key)
You will also need to enter the following additional environment variable in order to successfully connect:
- sumoLogicRegion
- sumoLogicCollectionURL
Username & Password
The Username and Password will be an Access ID and Access Key pair created in Sumo Logic.
In the Sumo Logic Administration Console, navigate to Administration > Security > Access Keys
Next, select +Add Access Key
Give the Access Key a name, and click Create Key.
After the key has been created, copy the Access ID and Access Key.
When installing the Sumo Logic integration in BetterCloud, Insert the Access ID in the Username field, and the Access Key in the Password field.
Sumo Logic Region
This will be the region-specific deployment in Sumo Logic. More information can be found here.
For example, if your Sumo Logic Login URL is https://service.us2.sumologic.com, you'll enter us2 for the sumoLogicRegion environment variable when installing the Sumo Logic Integration in BetterCloud.
Sumo Logic Collection URL
This will be the data collection URL you'll send BetterCloud Push Events to in Sumo Logic.
In the Sumo Logic Administration Console, navigate to Manage Data > Collection
Select Setup Wizard in the upper right.
Select Set Up Streaming Data > Get Started.
Select Your Custom App.
Select HTTPS Source.
Enter a Source Category to assist in filtering logs later. Click Continue.
The HTTP Source URL will be generated. Select & Copy the url excluding https://.
Populate this url in the sumoLogicCollectionURL when installing the Sumo Logic integration in BetterCloud.
