# Logs in Key Management Service

Key Management Service (KMS) keeps logs of actions that are performed on symmetric and asymmetric keys. You can view and analyze these logs as events in the [Audit Logs](/audit-logs/index) service.

KMS only supports *control plane logs*. They describe key management and lifecycle events, such as [creating](/kms/manage/create), [updating](/kms/manage/update), [deleting](/kms/manage/delete-restore) or [rotating](/kms/manage/rotate) a key.

## How to view logs

<Tabs group="interfaces">
  <Tab title="Web console">
    1. In the sidebar, go to <Icon icon="https://mintcdn.com/nebius-ai-cloud/1Ha0sWR6e1mnIaHS/_assets/sidebar/administration.svg?fit=max&auto=format&n=1Ha0sWR6e1mnIaHS&q=85&s=e6411dc023fd6972922c0a12a59ccf21" width="16" height="16" data-path="_assets/sidebar/administration.svg" /> **Administration** → **Audit Logs**.
    2. Select **Control plane**.
    3. Filter events by the `KMS` service. If this filter is not displayed, click **Filters** and then select **Service**.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="CLI">
    Run [nebius audit v2 audit-event list](/cli/reference/audit/v2/audit-event/list) with the service filter: `--filter "service.name='KMS'"`. To get control plane logs, add `--event-type control_plane`:

    ```bash theme={null}
    nebius audit v2 audit-event list \
       --parent-id <tenant_ID> \
       --start <time_in_ISO_8601> \
       --end <time_in_ISO_8601> \
       --filter "service.name='KMS'" \
       --event-type control_plane
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

For more details, see [Viewing events in Audit Logs](/audit-logs/events/view).

Parameters of an action, such as creating a key, are returned in the `.request.parameters` field of the Audit Logs event. For example:

```json theme={null}
{
  "request": {
    "parameters": {
      "metadata": {
        "id": "<key_ID>",
        "parent_id": "<project_ID>",
        "name": "<key_name>",
        "resource_version": "0",
        "labels": {}
      },
      "spec": {
        "description": "<key_description>",
        "algorithm": "<key_algorithm>"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
