Get log

Description

Allows access to a log file by name by making it temporarily accessible via the Red5 Pro web server. A temporary path is generated to enable the download. You can download the file by using the server address, the path provided in the response, and the filename. After a limited time, the file is removed and the temporary path is deleted (for security).

• URI:

http://{host}:{port}/api/v1/log/{logfilename}?accessToken=<accessToken>

• Method: GET
• Parameters:

RESPONSE

• Failure: HTTP CODE 400 or 404
• Data :

    {
      "errorMessage": "<error-message-string>",

  "name": "<logfilename>",
  "lastModified": <lastmodified>,
  "size": <size-in-bytes>
},
"timestamp": 1515766780094
