General Syslogs and logging in Apigee SaaS

[ankita10j]

Hi,

I have to share General Syslogs and logging in Apigee SaaS with client. Any information on this?

how we will be configuring syslogs and auditing in general? I’m interested in what type of events are captured and where, how they are accessed, what is the retention period and how can they be exported to an external sys logging platform?

Thanks,

Ankita

Edge provides audit logs for the actions (create, update, delete) executed on entities managed by Apigee Edge. However, these logs are not exported via Syslog. You can access them via the management APIs if you want to export them. See docs here: https://apidocs.apigee.com/api/audits-0

You can see the nature of the audit information in the UI. See docs here: https://docs.apigee.com/api-platform/debug/view-api-history

I don't know the official retention period, but I can go back 2 years in the UI on the Settings --> Audit Logs page in my trial orgs.

Logging of API calls is up to the API proxy developer. Edge does not log any API calls by default. See docs here: https://docs.apigee.com/api-platform/reference/policies/message-logging-policy
