Understanding API log in Acteol

What is an API log

The API Logs page in Acteol is a monitoring and troubleshooting tool that shows the last 1,000 API calls made by connected users and third‑party systems.

Each log entry lets you see:

  • What was received by the Acteol instance: The incoming API request.

  • What was returned by the Acteol instance: The API response.

🤓Tip: This makes the API Logs page a quick and practical way to verify data exchanges, investigate issues, or confirm that integrations are working as expected.

A quick API refresher

API stands for Application Programming Interface. An API allows two pieces of software to communicate with each other using a shared method.

🤓Tip: Think of it like this:

A German person and a Spanish person may not speak each other’s language, but they can still communicate by using English as a common language.

In the same way, APIs act as the common language that allows different systems to exchange information.


What you will see in the API logs

Each entry in the API Logs shows:

  • The API method that was called.

  • The request payload: What data was sent to Acteol).

  • The response payload: What Acteol returned.

  • Key technical details that help confirm whether the call succeeded or failed.

This visibility makes the page especially useful for:

  • Integration testing.

  • Debugging failed calls.

  • Supporting third‑party developers.
