Yandex Serverless Containers

Viewing container logs

Written by

    Container runtime logs are stored for 14 days. The log uses UTC time.

    1. In the management console, select Serverless Containers.
    2. Click on a container to view its runtime log.
    3. Go to the Logs tab and specify the period for which you wish to view logs. The default time period is 1 hour.

    If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

    The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

    When viewing the log, you can set a specific interval using the --since and --until flags. If no time interval is specified, information for the previous hour is displayed.

    The following flags are used:

    • --since: Time N and later.

    • --until: Time N and earlier.

    If you only specify one flag, information is displayed for the hour before or after N depending on the flag.

    Allowed time formats:

    • HH:MM:SS. Example: 15:04:05.

    • RFC-3339. Example: 2006-01-02T15:04:05Z, 2h, 3h30m ago.

    To access a container, use its name or unique ID. To get them, get a list of containers in the folder.

    View the container runtime log:

    yc logging read --resource-ids=<container_ID>

    Result:
