Technical Tip: Email alert using automation stitch when FortiGate image is loaded successfully

[rahul_p1]

Description	This article describes how to configure an automation stitch to receive an email alert when FortiGate upgrades firmware.
Scope	FortiGate.
Solution	As shown in this image, the current firmware on FortiGate is v7.4.5. When FortiGate loads an image system log is generated in the system Events. For the image to load successfully log ID will be generated (log id="0100032201). Create an automation trigger for FortiOS event logs. Select the FortiOS event Log as the image loaded successfully with the correct log as shown in the screenshot. Create an action that will be performed when this log is generated in the system alert. Email notification is used for action. Add an email address to which the alert will be sent by FortiGate. Create an Automation stitch and select the trigger and action that were configured above. After the configuration of the Automation stitch, perform a manual test, and when it will be uploaded the image on FortiGate, it will send the alert email to the email given in action. Email alert messages are received by email with the details of the log ID, and a successful image is loaded. devname="ion-kvm148" eventtime=1742271339921790999 tz="-0700" logid="0100032201" type="event" subtype="system" level="critical" vd="root" logdesc="Image loaded successfully" user="admin" ui="GUI(172.16.15.1)" action="loaded-image" status="success" msg="User admin loaded an image from GUI(172.16.15.1). The new image does have a valid RSA signature." The CLI part after configuration is as follows: Stitch: config system automation-stitch     edit "Image loaded successfully"         set trigger "Image loaded successfully"             config actions                 edit 1                     set action "Image loaded successfully"                     set required enable                 next end Trigger: config system automation-trigger     edit "Image loaded successfully"         set event-type event-log         set logid 32201     next end Action: config system automation-action     edit "Image loaded successfully"         set action-type email         set email-to "abc@xyz.com"         set email-subject "Image loaded successfully"     next end To test the Automation Stitch, run the following command: diagnose automation test Login-Failure 0100032201 automation test failed(2). stitch: Image loaded successfully
