Focus on your data, not your tools: you can get started with Stackhero's Graylog cloud hosting solution in just a few minutes.

Start by configuring a GELF TCP input on your Graylog server.

Go to your Graylog admin panel. Under "System" > "Inputs", create a new input of type "GELF TCP". Make sure to tick the "global" box, enter a "title" for your input, and check that the port is set to 12201.

Do not enable any TLS option here. TLS encryption will be managed by the reverse proxy included with your instance.
