Events/Logs Schema
When events are sent from open-appsec agents to be viewed in the cloud application and/or to a Syslog/CEF server, they are sent in a specific field structure.
This page will document the fields being sent. This will allow filter queries in the cloud application and log parsing to be done on the Syslog/CEF side (see configuration of Trigger objects for more info).
See below the security logs schema in openAPI format.

The definitions per field are relevant even when the logs aren't sent in JSON format.
This table shows the predefined field keywords alongside their view name in the logs table and log cards.
in brackets for each field name is the name when sent to syslog/CEF. Usually the difference is simply an all-lowercase format vs lowerCamelCase
