Whereas the audit log is more relevant for auditing purposes, the provided system logs are mainly required for error analysis.   ## Monitor Audit Log Audit logs are security-relevant records. [SAP Integration Suite](https://learning.sap-press.com/sap-and-the-cloud#sap-cloud-platform) needs to log all system changes in the SAP Integration Suite tenant. The changes logged are configuration changes, deployments, or deletions of security artifacts; log level changes; and so on. All those changes are logged in the audit log. The monitoring dashboard offers access to the audit log via the **Audit Log** tile (refer to the figure below).   ![SAP Cloud Platform Integration Access Log Types](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_08_058.jpg?width=501&name=1706_08_058.jpg)   Selecting the **Audit Log** tile opens a table in a new screen showing all audit logs of the last hour (see the two figures below). However, you can adjust the **Time Range** at the top of the table to see audit logs for a longer time period. In the second figure, for example, you see the audit logs for the **Past 24 Hours**. There’s a table a little farther down which provides a detailed description of the attributes for audit log entries.   **![SAP Cloud Platform Integration Audit Logs](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_08_059.jpg?width=1343&name=1706_08_059.jpg)**   ![SAP Cloud Platform Integration Filtering](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_08_060.jpg?width=788&name=1706_08_060.jpg)   The retention time of audit logs is 30 days, after which the audit log is automatically deleted.   ![SAP Cloud Platform Integration Audit Log](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_Table_8_023.png?width=1340&name=1706_Table_8_023.png)   You can sort the entries using the **Sort** icon or filter by **Object Name**, **User**, or **Source** using the **Filter** field at the top of the table.   Now let’s look at the second tile in the **Access Logs** section, which provides access to system logs.   ## Check System Log Files Sometimes, the error messages shown in the message processing log aren’t sufficient to fully understand the root cause of an error or SAP support requires detailed information for analyzing an error. In such cases, you need to have a look into the system logs written during message processing on the runtime node. The **System Log Files** tile provides access to those technical system logs.   Selecting the **System Log Files** tile opens a table containing the most important log files of the runtime nodes running in your cluster (see below) in the **Log Files** tab. The table below provides a detailed description of the attributes of the system log files.   ![SAP Cloud Platform Integration Monitor System Logs](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_08_061.jpg?width=1132&name=1706_08_061.jpg)   The retention time of the system log files is seven days. After that, the system logs are automatically deleted.   ![SAP Cloud Platform Monitor System Log](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_Table_8_024.jpg?width=1946&name=1706_Table_8_024.jpg)   You can sort the entries using the **Sort** icon or filter by **Name** using the **Filter** field at the top of the table.   In the **Collections** tab, you can access collections of the system log files (see below). You can download the collections as an archive or copy the download URL. Downloading the collection, you get a *\*.zip* archive containing the latest log files.   ![SAP Cloud Platform Integration Export](https://blog.sap-press.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1706_08_062.jpg?width=688&name=1706_08_062.jpg)   ## Conclusion Logs are important, for example, when specific errors need to be analyzed that occur during runtime processing. Often detailed logs are requested by SAP support to analyze specific error situations. Therefore, it’s important to know which logs are available and what they contain. This blog post introduced you to the two logs available for use in troubleshooting.
