Structuring API Logs

UNDERSTANDING APIs & API LOGS
Server goes through your request, finds the required data, prepares for the response : Server Processing the Request
Server responds back to your browser with the information you looked for (HTML, Images, Code) : API Call return
API Logs shows you what happened when you sent a request step by step:
Did the request reach the server?
Did the server understand the request?
Was there an error in the response?
How long did it take for the server to respond?
API logs is their go-to-tool for integration issues.
THE CHALLENGE
When developers integrate Scalekit, they often face issues and need visibility into their API usage to debug and troubleshoot effectively.
Current pain points/ DEV INSIGHTS:
Raw server logs/Terminal Logs data is not structured
Scanning large JSON files slows down decision making and wastes time
No way to spot failing endpoints or latency issues quickly
ASSIGNMENT DETAILS
Design an API Logs feature that allows developers to access and analyse their API activity with Scalekit—enabling efficient debugging, integration, and troubleshooting.
