What are Access Logs?
Access logs capture authentication events when users or API keys attempt to access a resource. They record whether the authentication was successful or failed, along with contextual information about the attempt. These logs are useful for:- Monitoring authentication patterns and login attempts
- Tracking which users are accessing which resources
- Identifying failed authentication attempts for security analysis
- Understanding geographic distribution of access attempts
- Analyzing user agent and device information
