I’m using the /system/logs/search endpoint to filter for custom events within the access.log file.
Filters work properly via log search in the UI
My filter experience with the API is still clumsy and time consuming
Is there a way to quickly generate a custom search query that can be used with the log search endpoint from the UI?
As with a lot of Modern Web Applications, the Network Dev Tools of your browser is pretty awesome for seeing Client Side API requests / responses. So in my example, I used the GUI to search for logs while the Network tools are open. Once I submit the Search, I can see the API Request. From there, I can right click on the Entry > Copy > Copy as cURL - which builds the cURL request (Including all the headers, and body, etc). You can then use that in your terminal to play around with the API.
