Hi @Fariq_Zaidi ,

How do you have your log forwarding profile configured? Do you have your log types set to All Logs for URL, Wildfire, and Tunnel?

For URL you also want to make sure that URL Filtering profile uses an action such as alert, block, or continue for the categories you want logged. Categories set to allow may not generate a URL log.

For the Tunnel logs, please confirm whether Tunnel Content Inspection is configured under Policies > Tunnel Inspection and whether logs are generated locally under Monitor > Logs > Tunnel Inspection. This log type applies to supported cleartext tunnels passing through the firewall and is separate from standard IPsec VPN status events. If you are looking for standard IPsec VPN events such as tunnel status, negotiation, or tunnel-monitor messages, those are typically found in the System logs. So you should be covered there.

If you go to Monitor > Logs > Wildfire , do you see logs generated there during the time frame of when you were monitoring Splunk?

Hi Jay

thank you for the feedback , see my answered below

Do you have your log types set to All Logs for URL, Wildfire, and Tunnel? - Yes

For the URL we have setup correctly as we can see the URL logs in firewall

For Tunnel inspection, we not configure under policy-> tunnel inspection . so no logs seen in firewall (this is confirm)
For Wildfire -> yes we can see the logs generated

thank you
