# Customize the streamed log events

Log streaming provides an option to funnel only log events of interest to your AWS S3 bucket. For log events generated from Access Visibility, Cyber Shield, and DNS Log, you can configure filters to only stream log events of interest. This filtering at source allows you to reduce the noise and focus on log events that deserve your attention instead of overloading your downstream tools with log events and then filtering them out at your SIEM or other log collection and presentation tools.

## Customize the Log Streaming events sent for Access Visibility

You can configure conditions that match or do not match specific Networks, Network Applications, Network IP Services, Hosts, Host Applications, Host IP Services, or Primary User Groups of interest for Access Visibility log events. Only the events that meet the conditions will be streamed.

To customize the **Log Streaming** events sent for **Access Visibility**, follow the steps below:

1. Sign in to the CloudConnexa Administration Portal using your WPC's **Cloud ID** address (for example, `yourcompany.openvpn.com`).
2. Navigate to **API & Logs \> Log Streaming**.
3. Check that **Access Visibility** type of events is toggled ON.
4. Click **Customize** found below the brief description of **Access Visibility**.
5. Select **Network, Network Application, Network IP Service, Host, Host Application, Host IP Service, or Primary User Group** from the drop-down list.
6. Select whether the customization rule should use the '**is**' or '**is not**' clause from the drop-down list.
7. Select one or more values that you want to use in the customization rule from the drop-down list.
8. Click **Apply**.

   You will see the customization rule displayed, along with a notification stating that the rule will take effect in approximately 5 minutes.
9. Continue to add more customization rules.
