+# Configure log data sources
+
+The `observability:logSources` {{kib}} advanced setting defines which index patterns your deployment or project uses to store and query log data.
+
+Configure this setting at **Stack Management** → **Advanced Settings** or by searching for `Advanced Settings` in the [global search field](/explore-analyze/find-and-organize/find-apps-and-objects.md).
+
+
+::::{note}
+Adding indices to the `observability:logSources` setting that don't contain log data may cause degraded functionality. Changes to this setting can also impact the sources queried by log threshold rules.
+::::
+
+## Configure log data sources using the `saved_objects` API
+
+To configure log data sources using an API, use the `saved_objects` API. To do this,
+
+1. From **Stack Management** → **Saved Objects**, [export](/explore-analyze/find-and-organize/saved-objects.md) the log data views, which are stored as an `infrastructure-monitoring-log-view` saved object type, to use as a template.
+1. Modify the relevant data view fields in the exported JSON.
+1. Import the saved object using the [import saved objects API]({{kib-apis}}/operation/operation-importsavedobjectsdefault).
