Create a Source By Duplicating an Existing One

If you’re not sure about how to create a source, then you can use any existing log source to create a new one.
  1. Open the navigation menu and click Observability & Management. Under Logging Analytics, click Administration. The Administration Overview page opens.

    The administration resources are listed in the left hand navigation pane under Resources. Click Sources.

  2. In the Sources page, click the menu icon next to the source entry based on which you want to create a new source and select Duplicate.
    The Create Source page is displayed with the log definition fields populated with the definitions of the existing source.
  3. Modify the source definition and click Save.

Note: It is recommended that you edit and customize an Oracle-defined source instead of making a duplicate of the Oracle-defined source and editing it. The new duplicated and edited source will not get any of the future Oracle updates.
