View event logs

||Connect docs via MCP

Event logs show every event received from your configured connectors: Airflow, Apache Spark, Anomalo, and others. Use them to verify lineage events are arriving correctly, debug issues with event-based connections, and track which connector sent which event. Logs are retained for 7 days.

Prerequisites

• You are an admin in Atlan.
• At least one supported source is configured to send events. Supported sources: Airflow/OpenLineage, Amazon MWAA/OpenLineage, Astronomer/OpenLineage, Google Cloud Composer/OpenLineage, Apache Spark/OpenLineage, Anomalo.

   If you are using the Old UI (Classic), from the left menu, click Admin.

3. The page shows the 20 most recently received events. For each event you can see the timestamp (your local timezone, 24-hour format), connector name, and a summary of the event details.

   • Airflow: includes events from Airflow, Amazon MWAA, Astronomer, and Google Cloud Composer.
