CloudWatch Logs Get Log Events - BlinkOps Documentation

Lists log events from the specified log stream. You can list all of the log events or filter using a time range. By default, this operation returns as many log events as can fit in a response size of 1MB (up to 10,000 log events). You can get additional log events by specifying one of the tokens in a subsequent call. This operation can return empty results while there are more log events available through the token.

Basic Parameters

Parameter	Description
AWS Region(s)	Enter the desired AWS Region(s). To execute the action in multiple regions, provide a comma-separated list. For example: `us-east-1,eu-west-2`. If you wish to run the action in all available regions, use the asterisk symbol (`*`) instead.
End Time	The end of the time range, expressed as the number of milliseconds after Jan 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. Events with a timestamp equal to or later than this time are not included.
Log Group Name	The name of the log group.
Log Stream Name	The name of the log stream.
Start Time	The start of the time range, expressed as the number of milliseconds after Jan 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. Events with a timestamp equal to this time or later than this time are included. Events with a timestamp earlier than this time are not included.

Advanced Parameters

Parameter	Description
Disable XML To JSON Auto Convert	When checked, XML responses are not automatically converted into JSON format.
Limit	The maximum number of log events returned. If you don’t specify a value, the maximum is as many log events as can fit in a response size of 1 MB, up to 10,000 log events.
Next Token	The token for the next set of items to return. (You received this token from a previous call.) Using this token works only when you specify true for startFromHead.
Start From Head	If the value is true, the earliest log events are returned first. If the value is false, the latest log events are returned first. The default value is false. If you are using nextToken in this operation, you must specify true for startFromHead.
