Appendix B: Sample SIEM Event Notifications

Last Modified on 04/22/2021 9:54 am PDT

Identity Cloud events can -- and do -- differ from one another: entityUpdate events (in which authenticated users make changes to their use profiles) are very different from authenticationFailedUnknownUser events, events where we don't even know who the user is (and, as the name implies, where authentication never even took place). Because events differ, that also means that event notifications differ: the information included in an entityUpdate event won't be the same as the information included in an authenticationFailedUnknownUser event.

To give you a heads-up on what your event notifications will look like, this page includes sample notifications for the following SIEM event types:

Keep in mind that these are sample notifications: the actual notifications that your organization receives could vary slightly. If you'd like more information about the values that appear on an event notification (values such as msts and origin), see Appendix A in this documentation set.
