  6. NAME – Specify a name for the Cloud Collector instance.

  7. ACCOUNT – Select the sharable account that you created for Salesforce.

  8. DATA SOURCES – Select the data sources from which you want to collect data.

  9. INGEST FROM – Select the time and date from which you want the collector to start pulling logs and to provide a threshold before which the collector will exclude events. If you leave this field blank and do not provide a threshold, all logs are ingested.

  10. (Optional) SITE – Select an existing site or to create a new site with a unique ID, click manage your sites. Adding a site name helps you to ensure efficient management of environments with overlapping IP addresses.

    By entering a site name, you associate the logs with a specific independent site. A sitename metadata field is automatically added to all the events that are going to be ingested via this collector. For more information about Site Management, see Define a Unique Site Name.

  11. (Optional) TIMEZONE – Select a time zone applicable to you for accurate detections and event monitoring.

    By entering a time zone, you override the default log time zone. A timezone metadata field is automatically added to all events ingested through this collector.
