Microsoft Sentinel solution for SAP applications systemconfig.json file reference

The systemconfig.json file is used to configure the behavior of the Microsoft Sentinel for SAP applications data connector agent when deployed from the command line. This article describes the options available in each section of the configuration file.

Content in this article is intended for your SAP BASIS teams, and is only relevant when your data connector agent is deployed from the command line. We recommend deploying your data connector agent from the portal instead.

Overall file structure

The following code shows the overall structure of the systemconfig.json file:

{ 

"<SID_GUID>": { 

    "secrets_source": {...},

    "abap_central_instance": {...},

    "azure_credentials": {...},

    "file_extraction_abap": {...},

    "file_extraction_java": {...},

    "logs_activation_status" {...},

    "connector_configuration": {...},

    "abap_table_selector":: {...}

...

}

The following table describes each overall section in the systemconfig.json file:

Section name	Description
Secrets source	Defines where credentials are stored.
ABAP central instance	Defines general options of the SAP instance to connect to.
Azure credentials	Defines credentials to connect to Azure Log Analytics.
File extraction ABAP	Defines logs and credentials that are extracted from ABAP servers using the SAPControl interface.
File extraction JAVA	Defines logs and credentials that are extracted from JAVA servers using the SAPControl interface.
Logs activation status	Defines which logs are extracted from ABAP.
Connector configuration	Defines miscellaneous connector options.
ABAP table selector	Defines which user master data logs get extracted from the ABAP system.
