Overview

Commands
Stream Logs
Stream real-time logs:
Stream logs for a specific service (regardless of its type):
qovery log --service "httpbin"
qovery log --application "my-api"
qovery log --service "httpbin" --raw
Options
| Flag | Short | Description |
|---|
--organization | | Organization Name |
--project | | Project Name |
--environment | | Environment Name |
--service | -s | Service name — tries application, container, database, and job APIs until a match is found |
--service-id | | Service UUID — directly stream logs by ID, skips name lookup (use with IDs from console URLs) |
--application | -a | Application Name |
--container | -n | Container Name |
--database | -d | Database Name |
--job | -j | Job Name |
--raw | -r | Display logs in raw format (json) |
--help | | Show help |
Examples
Stream Logs by Service Name
# Stream logs — works for any service type
qovery log --service "httpbin"
# Stream logs for a specific application
qovery log --application "my-api"
# Stream logs for a specific database
qovery log --database "postgres-main"
# Stream logs for a specific job
qovery log --job "backup-job"
Use Service ID from Console URL
When you have a Qovery console URL, you can use the service ID directly:
# Extract the ID from a URL like:
# .../service/2c69dfd4-1c5a-44c3-ac65-8c6399cfbf31/service-logs
qovery log --service-id "2c69dfd4-1c5a-44c3-ac65-8c6399cfbf31"
Raw Log Output
# Display logs as raw JSON
qovery log --service "my-api" --raw
Specify Context Explicitly
# Provide full context to skip interactive prompts
qovery log \
--organization "My Org" \
--project "Backend" \
--environment "production" \
--service "my-api"
Tips
Use --service-id with the UUID from your Qovery console URL to stream logs
without needing to know the service name. The ID is visible in the URL when
you navigate to a service in the console.
Use --service when you don’t know (or don’t want to specify) the type of
your service. Qovery will try each API (application, container, database, job)
until it finds a match. Use a specific flag (--application, --database,
etc.) if you want to target a precise service type.
Use --raw / -r to get logs in JSON format, which is useful for piping
output to tools like jq for further processing.
