Description


This article describes how to resolve the following error while enabling the FortiGuard log:

 

Haven't set FortiCloud account id
node_check_object fail! for status enable

 

This error is seen when there is no FortiGuard account ID is configured in FortiGate.

Solution


While enabling the FortiGuard logs, the following error appears when the FortiGuard service account is not configured.

 

config log fortiguard setting
  set status enable

Haven't set FortiCloud account id
node_check_object fail! for status enable  

 

It is necessary to make sure that FortiCloud service account is already added on the FortiGate.

If not configured, follow the below commands and add the service account ID in FortiGuard settings:

 

config system fortiguard
    set service-account <ID>      <- Enter the service account ID. The limit is 50 characters.
end

 

In the newer version, the service account ID command has been removed in order to connect with FortiCloud logging. First, activate fabric by authenticating with an account ID and password. Refer to Configuring cloud logging for step-by-step configuration. Ensure that the complete command has been manually set in the FortiGuard setting.


Once the FortiGuard account ID is added, enable the FortiGuard logs using the following commands:


config log fortiguard setting
    set status enable
end
