Learn about FusionAuth's Webhook Event Log and how to use it to search and view details of past events.

> For the index of this section of the site, see [llms.txt](https://fusionauth.io/docs/llms.txt)

Available since `1.53.0`

A Webhook Event Log is provided to review events sent by FusionAuth along with timing and result information for each attempt to send the event to configured endpoints. The `webhook_event_log_viewer` role grants users access to these pages. You can find the Webhook Event Log by navigating to System -> Webhook Log . The same information is available via the [Webhook Event Log APIs](https://fusionauth.io/docs/apis/webhook-event-logs.md).

Starting in version `1.57.0` the Webhook Event Log is disabled by default.

## Webhook Event Log UI

### List of Webhook Event Logs

The main Webhook Event Log page provides a list of summary information and search functionality for events. Test events sent via the Admin UI are not recorded in the Webhook Event Log.

### Manage Webhook Event

Click the Manage button on the list to manage a webhook event.

The page displays summary information about the event such as timing, event type, and result. The Webhook attempts tab contains information on attempts to send the event to each configured receiver.

### Configuration

The Webhook Event Log can be configured under Settings -> System on the Advanced tab.

Starting in version `1.57.0` the Webhook Event Log is disabled by default. Prior to that the feature could not be disabled.

By default Webhook Event Logs are retained for 30 days, after which they are deleted. Prior to version `1.57.0` the default behavior was to never delete Webhook Event Logs.

![Webhook Event Log Settings](https://fusionauth.io/img/docs/screenshots/webhook-event-log-settings.png)

When the **Delete** retention is enabled, Webhook Event Logs older than the configured number of days will be deleted automatically. The retention period can be set to a minimum of one day.
