Avanan Email Protection

No application template

Avanan has no application template of its own. It pushes to the platform's Splunk-compatible HTTP Event Collector; the HEC Input Passthrough template is the generic receiver for sources of this kind. See the Integration Matrix for which products use which path.

Configuring an integration to Avanan Email Protection​

See HEC (Splunk-compatible) on the Fluency Interface.

Configure in Fluency​

In the navigation rail, open Applications and click Install Application, then choose HEC Input Passthrough from the Endpoint Management category of the Application Catalog. The form has no Configuration section: open the collapsed Advanced configuration section and give datalake index name a name of its own, such as Avanan, so that the Avanan events do not land in default.

Install HEC Input Passthrough form with the Application section's Instance name and Display name fields, and Advanced configuration expanded to datalake and datalake index name, above Cancel, Dry run and Install Application

Click Install Application. Once the application is listed on Applications, click its row to open its details page. Its Outputs card carries the HEC URL and the HEC Security Token to enter in Avanan.
