We're currently working on support for SQL 2017/2019, however while we're working that, you could use SQL Extended Events and send them to the Windows Event Log. SEM includes a SQL Application Log connector which would then parse those logs. See here for steps on how to enable logging to Windows Events on the SQL side: How-To Write SQL Server Audit Events To Windows Security Log - TeckLyfe
Does that sound like a reasonable solution to get your SQL 2017 logs into SEM? Out of curiosity, what are the most common events you need to monitor within SQL logs?
