# Logs

The logs section provides a comprehensive record of all activities and events occurring within the MetaCopier platform. It serves as a detailed audit trail, allowing users to monitor and review various actions, errors, and system events.

## Categories and events

Every log entry carries, where known:

* **Category:** For example Trading, Skipped copies, Execution errors, Account & connection, Risk, News, Signals or System.
* **Event:** The concrete event, for example **Position closed** or **Account disconnected**.
* **Tool:** The feature (tool) that produced the entry, for example a specific News filter or risk limit.

Through the [REST API](/rest-api/api/swagger.md) and the [AI assistant](/ai/ai/tools.md) you can filter the logs by these fields. The same categories, events and tools are used by [notification rules](/features/basic-features/notifications.md) to decide which messages are sent to your [channels](/features/basic-features/notification-channels.md).
