Logs used for reports

Reports uses Analytics logs to generate reports. Archive logs are not used to generate reports. For more information, see Data policy and automatic deletion.

You can use the Report Guidance feature to make sure the appropriate Analytics logs are available for a custom or predefined report. For more information, see Report guidance.

For reports about users, the FortiGate needs to populate the user field in the logs sent to FortiAnalyzer.
