Monitor events from Custom Views of Windows EventViewer

Hi,
we are trying to monitor some events on a Custom View created on the Windows Event Viewer like in the pic below

We tried to get those events adding the stanza [WinEventLog://MonitoredEvents] but nothing is shown in Splunk. Has anyone encountered this before ?

Thanks

It seems you have built an event filter, sadly the Splunk UF can not leverage this directly, however if you are filtering these events by something as simple as an event id, its relatively simple to replicate this on your forwarders inputs.conf using white listing.

If my comment helps, please give it a thumbs up!

This is not the log, it's a view.
