# Get a job's log

> A job's log, in order, after after (a sequence number from an earlier call).

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="get">GET</span><code>/repos/{owner}/{name}/actions/jobs/{job}/logs</code></div>

`done` says whether more will come. Lines starting ##[group], ##[endgroup], ##[error] and ##[warning] mark groups and messages.

Returns at most 500 chunks. Step 0 is the job's setup. While `done` is false, call again with the last `seq` as `after`.

- **Authentication:** Required. Send an [access token](/reference/api/#authentication) as `Authorization: Bearer`.
- **MCP tool:** [`workflow`](/reference/mcp/#workflow) with `action` `job_logs`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`workflows:read`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).

| --- | --- | --- |
| 401 | `unauthenticated` | A token is required, or the one sent is not valid. |
| 403 | `forbidden` | The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change or an agent token outside its repository. |
| 404 | `not_found` | It does not exist, or you cannot see it. |
| 422 | `invalid` | The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why. |
