Look things up. Nothing changes.
List log groups
Lists log groups, optionally only those whose name starts with a prefix like /aws/lambda/.
List log streams
Lists a log group's streams, the most recently written first.
Search log events
Finds a log group's events in a time range that match a filter pattern: a word or "quoted phrase" (ERROR, "timed out"), terms like ?ERROR ?WARN for either, or a JSON pattern like { $.status = 500 }.
Read a log stream
Reads one log stream's events in order, newest last, optionally in a time range.
Start a Logs Insights query
Starts a CloudWatch Logs Insights query over up to 50 log groups and a time range in seconds since 1970, like fields @timestamp.
Get query results
Gets a Logs Insights query's status (Scheduled, Running, Complete, Failed, Cancelled, Timeout) and, once Complete, its results.
Write 2
Create, change or send.
Create a log stream
Creates a log stream in a log group, to write events to with "Write log events".
Write log events
Writes up to 10,000 events to a log stream, each with a timestamp in milliseconds since 1970 (in order, within the last 14 days) and a message up to 1 MB.
A person can approve first
Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything.
