# Amazon CloudFront

### Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

This integration uses Amazon Data Firehose to deliver CloudFront logs directly to our Agent Monitor. Amazon Data Firehose (formerly Kinesis Data Firehose) is a fully managed AWS service for loading streaming data into a variety of destinations, including HTTP endpoints.&#x20;

For additional details, refer to the[ AWS documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/real-time-logs.html).

### Setup <a href="#configuration" id="configuration"></a>

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Log into your AWS Console and head over to the Amazon Data Firehose section. This is where we'll create the pipeline that sends you to Limy.

<br>
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click to create a new delivery stream and configure it with these settings:

* **Source:** Choose "Direct PUT"
* **Destination:** Select "HTTP Endpoint"\
  These settings tell Data Firehose to accept data directly and send it to an HTTP endpoint (which will be Limy's API).
* **Content encoding:** Choose "Disabled"

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Now for the important part - connecting to Limy:

```
https://stream.getlimy.ai
```

**Authentication:** You'll need to provide your Limy key as the access key. We strongly recommend using AWS Secrets Manager to store this securely.

Create a secret in AWS Secrets Manager with this JSON structure:

```json
{ "api_key": "your_limy_api_key" }
```

I**mportant Settings:**\
**Backup S3 Bucket:**\
AWS requires you to specify an S3 bucket for failed deliveries. Create a new bucket or select an existing one - this is just for error cases.
{% endhint %}

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Navigate to your CloudFront distribution in the AWS Console and click over to the "Logging" tab. Hit the "Add" button and choose "Kinesis Data Firehose" as your destination.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Note:**

You might see it called "Kinesis Data Firehose" in CloudFront even though AWS renamed it to Amazon Data Firehose - they're the same thing.
{% endhint %}

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
You'll be on the "Add standard logging destination" screen now. Pick the delivery stream you just created, then scroll down to "Additional settings - optional" and select these fields:

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Under "Output format", select **JSON**. This ensures the data is structured properly for Limy to process.
