ACL LOG - Upstash Documentation

Use ACL LOG to inspect recent authentication and permission failures, and ACL LOG RESET to clear it. On standard Redis this is where to look when a client is unexpectedly denied: each entry records the reason, the username, and the command or key involved. This deployment does not yet record ACL failures, so ACL LOG currently always returns an empty array regardless of the optional count, while ACL LOG RESET still succeeds.

Syntax

ACL LOG [count | RESET]

Arguments

Argument	Required	Repeatable	Description
`count`	No	No	Maximum number of log entries to return.
`RESET`	No	No	Clear the log instead of reading it.

Important points

ACL LOG currently always returns an empty array; this deployment does not yet track authentication or permission failures.
ACL LOG RESET still returns OK.

Response

The reply reports the result of the operation. Error replies have the same shape in RESP2 and RESP3 and are surfaced as exceptions by the SDKs below.

Protocol	Reply
RESP2	Array (currently always empty); or Simple string `OK` for `RESET`
RESP3	Array (currently always empty); or Simple string `OK` for `RESET`

Client libraries often decode bulk strings, maps, sets, and numeric strings into language-native values. The table describes the Redis wire reply.

Examples

TCP examples use the TLS REDIS_URL from the Upstash console. REST examples use UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL and UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN.
