Hello,

MS Cloud App security does provide a syslog-based export method:
- as an MS Cloud App admin, you can generate required setup to install an on-premise agent (Java-based) that will periodically download Cloud App security events and then forward to the specified syslog server
- from there, you need to implement custom knowledge object to leverage syslog events... As far as I know, there is currently no TA you can leverage for that

Regards.

This guidance is currently your best/easiest method for accomplishing what you have outlined (no current App or TA available):

this is a very wide topic... you can either setup Splunk as a syslog server (not recommend if you do have a lot of traffic) either you can index the data of a dedicated syslog server. There is not universal solution, it depends on your needs and environment.

You can search here, it has already been discussed a lot:
