# View logs and events

Read what a worker reports, to see why an endpoint is slow to start, keeps restarting, or fails requests. The **Events & Logs** tab has **Deployment Events**, **Worker Logs**, and **Request Logs**.

## Before you begin

- Permission to read model endpoints in the project. A Member needs a policy that grants read permission for the Inference service.
- An endpoint in any state except **Stopped** or **Terminating**.

## Open the tab

Open the endpoint and select **Events & Logs**. To see only the workers in one state, such as **Ready** or **Error**, use **All statuses**.

## Read a worker's events

1. Select **Deployment Events**.
2. Under **Select Worker**, choose a worker.
3. Read the table. **Message** and **Reason** say what happened. **Type** is **Normal**, **Warning**, **Error**, or **Info**, and **Age** says how long ago.

## Read a worker's logs

1. Select **Worker Logs** and choose a worker under **Select Worker**.
2. Refresh the logs, or set **Auto Refresh** to **Disable**, **10 Seconds**, **30 Seconds**, or **1 Minute**.
3. Set **Filter By** to **Last N Lines**, **Last N Seconds**, or **None**, and give **Value of N**. It starts at 1000 lines.
4. Select **Download logs** to save every line as `<worker name>-logs.json`.

You can also reach a worker's events and logs from the **Workers** tab, with **Events** and **Logs** on its row.

## Read the request logs

Select **Request Logs**. There is one log file per hour; choose a file to read it. Access logs can take up to an hour to appear here.

## Check what you found

A worker state such as **ImagePullBackOff** or **ErrImagePull** means the worker failed to fetch the image. **CrashLoopBackOff** means the container keeps starting and stopping. For the other messages, see [Troubleshooting Model Endpoints](/tir/model-endpoints/troubleshooting/model-endpoints/). To follow an endpoint's load, see [Monitor an endpoint](/tir/model-endpoints/how-to/monitor-an-endpoint/).
