Description This article explains how to troubleshoot the error 'Failed to download the report from sandbox server' in the FortiClient EMS when trying to download Sandbox event reports.
Scope FortiClient EMS 7.2 and 7.4.
Solution

FortiClient EMS shows Sandbox Events when the FSA integration is added.

 

When trying to download Sandbox Events, the following error may appear:

 

'Failed to download the report from sandbox server: Failed to connect to %product$. Please login to FortiSandbox again or check connections to $product%'.

 

For example:

The error indicates issues connecting to FortiSandbox to retrieve the information.

In order to download the reports, a valid username and password must be added to the FortiSandbox profile:

FortiSandbox integration can work without adding these credentials, but FortiClient EMS will not be able to retrieve the reports.
