AWS Cloudwatch Logs into Qliksense?

[Senor_Dai]

Hi,

We have a load of logs being sent to AWS Cloudwatch.  Has anyone ever been able to load this into QlikSense for analysis?

Any advice appreciated.

Hello @Senor_Dai ,

I haven't tried this myself but seems I would say there are 2 options to retrieve the data, based on AWS documentation.

The first one would be to have an Athena DB that pulls the data from Cloudwatch and then you can load it into Qlik Sense.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/athena/latest/ug/athena-prebuilt-data-connectors-cwlogs.html

The second option, Would be to retrieve data using Cloudwatch's API and our rest connector.

Hopefully, this information helps.

Best regards,

Francisco
