+# Windows Event Log (winevtlog)
+
+The **winevtlog** input plugin allows you to read Windows Event Log with new API from `winevt.h`.
+
+## Configuration Parameters <a id="config"></a>
+
+The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:
+
+| Key | Description | Default |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| Channels | A comma-separated list of channels to read from. |  |
+| Interval\_Sec | Set the polling interval for each channel. \(optional\) | 1 |
+| Interval\_NSec | Set the polling interval for each channel (sub seconds. \(optional\) | 0 |
+| Read\_Existing\_Events | Whether to read existing events from head or tailing events at last on subscribing. \(optional\) | False |
+| DB | Set the path to save the read offsets. \(optional\) |  |
+| String\_Inserts | Whether to include StringInserts in output records. \(optional\) | False  |
+| Render\_Event\_As\_XML | Whether to render system part of event as XML string or not. \(optional\) | False  |
+| Use\_ANSI | Use ANSI encoding on eventlog messages. \(optional\) | False  |
+
+Note that if you do not set _db_, the plugin will tail channels on each startup.
+
+## Configuration Examples <a id="config_example"></a>
+
+### Configuration File
+
+Here is a minimum configuration example.
+
+```python
+[INPUT]
+    Name         winevtlog
+    Channels     Setup,Windows PowerShell
+    Interval_Sec 1
+    DB           winevtlog.sqlite
+
+[OUTPUT]
+    Name   stdout
+    Match  *
+```
+
+Note that some Windows Event Log channels \(like `Security`\) requires an admin privilege for reading. In this case, you need to run fluent-bit as an administrator.
+
+### Command Line
+
+If you want to do a quick test, you can run this plugin from the command line.
+
+```bash
+$ fluent-bit -i winevtlog -p 'channels=Setup' -p 'Read_Existing_Events=true' -o stdout
+```
+
+Note that `winevtlog` plugin will tail channles on each startup.
+If you want to confirm whether this plugin is working or not, you should specify `-p 'Read_Existing_Events=true'` parameter.
