# Cloud project logs

> Source: https://docs.strapi.io/cloud/projects/logs

The Logs tab streams your project's live logs in a searchable, filterable table. Click any entry to inspect its full message and metadata.

From the project dashboard, the *Logs* tab streams the live logs of the project as structured entries you can search, filter, and inspect.

:::note
The *Logs* page is only accessible once the project has a successful deployment and is inaccessible during major environment operations, such as project creation, data transfer, or environment clearing.

## Viewing logs

The viewer follows the live logs stream and auto-scrolls to keep the latest entries in view. Each row shows three columns:

| Column | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Timestamp | When the log was emitted. |
| Type | The log level, *Error*, *Warning*, *Info*, or *HTTP*, shown as a colored badge. For *HTTP* entries, the response status code is shown next to the badge. |
| Message | The log message. Long messages are truncated in the table; click the entry to read the full text in the drawer. |

You can copy a single log line by clicking the copy button  visible on row hover, or within the drawer. To copy every entry currently shown in the log viewer, use the copy button  in the toolbar instead.

:::caution
The live log stream is currently limited to the last 15 minutes and capped at 100,000 rows. Historical log visibility is under development.

## Inspecting a log entry

Click any log row to open a detail drawer and display the full message and, when available, the *Metadata* of the log. The *Metadata* section shows the following information:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `method` | HTTP method (e.g. `GET`, `POST`). |
| `path` | Requested path. |
| `route` | Matched application route. |
| `status_code` | HTTP response status code. |
| `error_type` | Error classification, when the entry is an error. |
| `duration_ms` | Time taken to handle the request, in milliseconds. |
| `response_size` | Size of the response. |
| `request_type` | Type of request (e.g. API, admin). |

## Viewing historical logs

Use the timeframe selector in the toolbar to switch between live mode and a bounded historical range. The viewer defaults to the last **15 minutes**.

The following ranges are available depending on your plan:

| Timeframe        | Required plan |
|------------------|---------------|
| 15m, 1h, 4h, 24h | All plans     |
| 2d, 7d           | Essential     |
| 14d              | Pro           |
| 30d              | Scale         |

For all non-live timeframes, a Refresh button appears next to the picker to manually reload the range. In live mode, logs refresh happens automatically.
-->

## Searching and filtering logs

You can use the search and filter tools to refine the logs displayed in the viewer. Filters and search combine, so you can, for example, show only *HTTP* entries with a *5xx* status that mention a specific route.

:::note
Projects deployed before the structured viewer was introduced display their logs as plain text, without search, filtering, or per-entry metadata. To access the new log viewer, trigger a manual redeployment of the project.
