@DannyPat44 I'm working on a CSV export for another command and looking at generalizing the format. I'll keep logs in mind as I think it's a good fit too. Update you as it comes together.
@DannyPat44 #955 brings the --csv
flag to logs and all the rest of our table result-based commands. This should be merged today into the main branch and make it into the next release.
An example of using it in your case would be:
auth0 logs list --filter "type: f AND date:[2023-12-25 TO 2024-01-02]" --csv > ~/Downloads/ben-logs.csv
Wow, that was so quick! Thank you.

Describe the problem you'd like to have solved
I was investigating some issues in our tenant and wanted to export some logs to a .csv file so we can count specific issues and share them with our customer success and support teams. Specifically, you can load the .csv to Excel, which is a friendly tool for non-developers.
Describe the ideal solution
I was able to do it, but I had to do some
jq
manipulation, which was a bit painful. It would be nice to have a similar flag as--json
for csv or have the formatting to the log table be more straightforward to parse to .csv.Alternatives and current workarounds
I was able to use this to build a csv file from the json output. But it took more effort than I would have liked.
auth0 logs list --filter "type: f AND date:[2023-12-25 TO 2024-01-02]" --json | jq -r '["type", "date", "description", "connection", "client_name", "user_agent"], (.[] | [.type, .date, .description, .connection, .client_name, .user_agent]) | @csv ' >> ~/Downloads/ben-logs.csv
I tried using
tr
andsed
but found that both would not properly break the file apart with the current output formating.auth0 logs list --filter "type: f AND date:[2023-12-25 TO 2024-01-02]" | tr "\\t" "," >> ~/Downloads/amh-logs.csv
Additional context
I love the new CLI tool. Overall, it is a great addition to help developers troubleshoot.
