Description This article describes how to enable email notification to FortiCare email in the automation stitch under the action tab.
Scope FortiGate v7.4.0+.
Solution

Starting FortiOS v7.4.0 and above, the option to use FortiCare email address in an Email action by enabling the 'Send to FortiCare email' field has been introduced.

 

With the option enabled, FortiOS will automatically use the email address associated with the FortiCare Support Entitlement. 

 

Additional emails can also be included in the email action. 

 

To configure an Email action with a FortiCare email address in the GUI:

 

Go to Security Fabric -> Automation and select the Action tab, and select edit on the existing action.

    edit <Name-of-Automation-Stitch>

        set action-type email

        set forticare-email enable

        set email-subject "%%log.logdesc%%"

    next

end
