Let say i have 2 sdwan rule to steer traffic from subnet 10.10.10.0/24 to the internet via link1 and subnet 10.10.20.0/24 via link2.

Can we see this routing in the routing table?

in the routing table you would either see the default routes or whatever routes to a subnet using sdwan members.

perhaps with, diagnose firewall proute list .

SD-WAN is just more advanced version of the Policy Based Routing in the Fortigate, so it does not touch the routing table - just creates/edits/deletes PBR rules. SD-WAN-created PBR rules have higher priority than any routing table, but lower priority than manually created Policy Routes. You can only see them (SD-WAN policy routes) as policy routes on CLI: dia firewall proute list
