If you create a trail, you can activate continuous delivery of CloudTrail events to and Amazon S3 bucket, including events for Amazon Kendra Intelligent Ranking. If you don't configure a trail, you can still view the most recent events in the CloudTrail console in Event history. Using the information collected by CloudTrail, you can determine the request that was made to Amazon Kendra Intelligent Ranking, the IP address from which the request was made, who made the request, when it was made, and additional details.
To learn more about CloudTrail, including how to configure and activate it, see the AWS CloudTrail User Guide.

For an ongoing record of events in your AWS account, including events for Amazon Kendra Intelligent Ranking, create a trail. A trail is a configuration that allows CloudTrail to deliver events as log files to a specified S3 bucket. By default, when you create a trail in the console, the trail applies to all AWS Regions. The trail logs events from all Regions in the AWS partition and delivers the log files to the S3 bucket that you specify. Additionally, you can configure other AWS services to further analyze and act upon the event data collected in CloudTrail logs. For more information, see:
CloudTrail logs all Amazon Kendra Intelligent Ranking actions, which are documented in

Example: Amazon Kendra Intelligent Ranking log file entries
A trail is a configuration that allows delivery of events as log files to a specified S3 bucket. CloudTrail log files contain one or more log entries. An event represents a single request from any source and includes information about the requested action, the date and time of the action, request parameters, and so on. CloudTrail log files aren't an ordered stack trace of the public API calls, so they don't appear in any specific order.
Calls to the CreateRescoreExecutionPlan operation creates the
following entry.
