Public Hosting Logs

This log provides details of actions performed with your publicly served folders. It is helpful for auditing who (Remote IP) is accessing the publicly served folders, when files were accessed, the hostname and path of the files accessed, and the status of each action.

We currently retain these logs for 30 days, but we are gradually increasing this to 180 days, with the 180-day retention expected to be in place by 2025.

Below are the details available in the public hosting logs.
