Access logs provide detailed information about each access attempt made to your Pangolin resources. These logs help you monitor and analyze user activity each time they attempt to authenticate.

## What are Access Logs?
|
|
|
|
Access logs capture authentication events when users or API keys attempt to access a resource. They record whether the authentication was successful or failed, along with contextual information about the attempt. These logs are useful for:
|
|
|
|
- Monitoring authentication patterns and login attempts
|
|
- Tracking which users are accessing which resources
|
|
- Identifying failed authentication attempts for security analysis
|
|
- Understanding geographic distribution of access attempts
|
|
- Analyzing user agent and device information
