The API log traces all API calls run on the server, regardless of their origin.
By default, the log file is named arapi.log. Each line of an API log file begins with <API>.
All AR System operations are logged, including the activity of Developer Studio and applications that you have developed.
Each API transaction includes a time stamp and the user name. The entry details include information about the API calls encountered and some information about parameters passed.
The following example shows a portion of an API log file:
