Introduction

The tags beginning with cloud.meraki identify events generated by Cisco Meraki.

Valid tags and data tables

The full tag must have 4 levels. The first two are fixed as cloud.meraki. The third level identifies the type of events sent, and the fourth level indicates the event subtype.

How is the data sent to Devo?

To send logs to these tables, Devo provides a collector that you can download and use to send the required events to your Devo domain. You can download the collector and learn how to use it in Cisco Meraki.

Log samples

The following is a sample logs sent to the cloud.meraki data table. Also, find how the information will be parsed in your data table under the sample log.

Extra columns

Fields marked as Extra in the table below are not shown by default in data tables and need to be explicitly requested in the query. You can find them marked as Extra when you perform a query so they can be easily identified. Learn more about this in Selecting unrevealed columns.
