# Configure the Access Log for HTTPS Requests

Configure Cortex XSOAR 6.15 access logs to view HTTP and HTTPS requests.

To effectively manage a web server, you need to get feedback about the activity, performance and problems that may occur. In the log server you can view HTTP/HTTPS requests, such as URLs, IP addresses, playbook searches, automation searches, etc.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

The format is Apache’s Combined Log Format. For more information, see <https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/logs.html>.
{% endhint %}

1. Select Settings → ABOUT → Troubleshooting → **Add Server Configuration**.
2. To enable the logs, add the following key and value:

   | Key                           | Value      |
   | ----------------------------- | ---------- |
   | **`http.access.log.enabled`** | **`true`** |

   All the HTTP requests to the server are logged in the **`access_log`** file.
3. (Optional) You can configure the log file through the following configurations:

   | Key                                     | Description                                                                      |
   | --------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   | **`http.access.log.enabled`**           | Enables or disables the log. Default is **`false`**.                             |
   | **`log.accesslog.filename`**            | The filename of the log. Default is **`access_log`**.                            |
   | **`log.accesslog.rolling.maxfilesize`** | The maximum number of megabytes when a new file is created. Default is **`10`**. |
   | **`log.accesslog.rolling.backups`**     | The number of backups. Default is **`3`**.                                       |
   | **`log.accesslog.rolling.maxage`**      | The number of days to preserve the log file. Default is **`0`**.                 |

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/xsoar-6-administrator-guide/6.15/customize-cortex-xsoar/customize-and-configure-cortex-xsoar/logs/configure-the-access-log-for-https-requests.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
