    Scenario

    This document describes how to use SCF to dump CLS logs to ES. CLS is mainly used for log collection, and SCF mainly provides node computing capabilities for data processing. For the data processing flowchart, see Function Processing Overview.

    Log Topic Name: Enter project_test for example.
    Logset Name: Enter nginx for example.
    
    4. Click OK.
    5. The log topic is successfully added, and you will be redirected to the log topic management page.

    6. Keep the default configuration and click Complete to complete the function creation.

    Configuring CLS triggers

    1. Log in to the CLS console and click Logset on the left sidebar.
    2. Locate the existing logset you want, and click View under Operation on the right to go to the logset details page.
    3. On the log topic details page, select Function Processing and click Create. Add the created function in the Function Processing pop-up window.
    
    The main parameter information is as follows. Use the default values for the remaining configuration items.
    Namespace: Select the function namespace.

    Alias: Select a function alias.
    Max waiting time: Configure the longest waiting time for a single event pull. Default value: 60s.

    Testing the function

    1. Download the log file in the test sample, extract demo-scf1.txt, and import it to the source CLS service.
    2. Go to the SCF console to view the execution result. Select the Log Query tab on the function details page to view the printed log information.
