I'd like to monitor for certain text in a search.log for recent jobs.

Is there a way to return a search.log for a recent search job using the REST api?

Hi @bschaap,

If you know the Job ID then you can use below REST API

curl -k -u admin:pass https://<server>:<mgmt_port>/services/search/jobs/<job_id>/search.log
