Sync Logs

A SyncLog is an audit log for monitoring and troubleshooting operations made by Remote Server Sync.

Logs available through this endpoint are retained for 6 months, after which they are automatically discarded. For longer retention, use Files.com SIEM integrations to stream logs in real time to your preferred SIEM, or configure SIEM streaming to a file.
