Check whether audit logging is enabled and show the current log file location. Essential for SOC 2 compliance and AI agent oversight.
The nylas audit logs status command reports whether audit logging is active, the path to the current log file, its size on disk, and the number of entries recorded. Use it to confirm logging is working or to find the log file for review.
Syntax
nylas audit logs status
How It Works
Every entry in the audit log captures: the exact command, all arguments (with secrets redacted), the invoker identity (human or AI agent name), the exit code, and a nanosecond timestamp. This level of detail is what compliance auditors expect.
Examples
Check audit logging status:
nylas audit logs status
Get status as JSON for monitoring scripts:
nylas audit logs status --json
Tips
Combine with other commands: Chain nylas audit logs status with other Nylas CLI commands using shell pipes and variables for complex workflows.
Debug mode: Add --verbose to see the underlying API requests and responses — useful when something doesn't behave as expected.
