API How-Tos

The Logging Service offers regional APIs that enable programmatic interaction with the platform. These APIs serve various purposes: task automation, system integration, and platform functionality extension. Additionally, the APIs allow you to filter logs based on different criteria, such as the date range, log level, and source.
