Audit Logging

From the API endpoint configuration, you can enable Logging. This feature allows you to choose how easily the endpoint can self-clear, providing the following options:

  • You can specify the maximum number of log entries to keep for the selected endpoint.
  • You can specify a time for log entries older than a specific date.

The “Data Braider Endpoint Logs” displays all the calls made to the selected endpoint. Furthermore, one of the major highlights of this feature is when opening an entry, you can see the exact JSON Input – a feature specific to Data Braider and not available with the standard API endpoints.

This feature also allows you to view the exact Output of the endpoint in response to the Input. As such providing an advantage for troubleshooting, as it displays all the information of the transaction. Moreover, this feature allows you to see whether the call was successful or not, and clicking on the unsuccessful entries will show you the malformed information that led to the failure of the call. This importance of this feature emerges from its ability to provide you with a detailed diagnosis of each transaction, a feature that is Data Braider-specific.

Another advantage of this feature is that it allows you to enable logging for specific endpoints. As such, you can enable logging for only the problematic endpoints, allowing you to keep track of the calls made in said endpoint, and then create a diagnostic report to figure out where the problem is, and eventually solve the problem.
