Download logs

AuraDB Professional AuraDB Virtual Dedicated Cloud

Both Query log analyzer and Security log analyzer allow you to download the fetched logs. The downloaded logs account for any filters and search that have been applied. Downloading logs consists of two steps: initiate the download and download the file.

Downloading logs requires a project role of either Project Admin or Project Member.

Initiate download

To initiate a download, after fetching the logs, use the Initiate log download icon button (Arrow Down Tray Icon) in the top right corner of either the Summary or Details table. Select the following options in the dialog:

  • Log type - Select one or both:

    • Summary - Aggregated log statistics

    • Details - Individual log events

  • Format - Choose your preferred format:

    • JSON

    • CSV with optional settings:

      • Include CSV headers (default: enabled)

      • CSV field delimiter (default: comma)

Confirm starts the download.

Each download request is limited to 24 hours of data and a maximum of 5 million rows.

Download the file

Use the Open downloads archive icon button (Document Text Icon) in the top right corner of the page, to view your downloads. The Downloads archive side drawer displays a table with all downloads for the currently selected instance. The table includes the following information for each download:

The file name follows this pattern: <db_id>-<timestamp>-<log_type>-logs-<log_sub_type>.<format>.gz, for example: dd9ba752-1731586207476-query-logs-details.json.gz

To delete a log file, select the delete icon in the Actions column.

Log files are automatically deleted from the downloads archive after 30 days.
