Scripting resources
This documentation is for legacy Kiwi Syslog Server versions 9.8.3 and older.
When you add an action to run a script or create a scheduled task to run a script, use the following resources to help you write the script. Use the examples in the \Scripts folder located in the Kiwi Syslog Server installation directory to get started writing scripts. The folder contains sample scripts that show you how to play sounds, send e-mail, log to file, and other actions.
You can share your custom parsing scripts with the SolarWinds Community.
