Logs Via API

In addition to downloading logs through the UI, logs are available through the API and the command line interface.

To download the log files for a specific environment, the command would be similar to the following.

$ aio cloudmanager:download-logs --programId 5 1884 author aemerror

You can also tail logs via the command line interface.

$ aio cloudmanager:tail-log --programId 5 1884 author aemerror

In order to obtain the environment Id (1884 in this example) and the available service or log name options you can use the following commands.

$ aio cloudmanager:list-environments
Environment Id Name                     Type  Description
