Monitoring Amazon RDS log files
Every RDS database engine generates logs that you can access for auditing and troubleshooting. The type of logs depends on your database engine.
You can access database logs for DB instances using the AWS Management Console, the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), or the Amazon RDS API. You can't view, watch, or download transaction logs.
