I have set up a serverless express function (integrated with API gateway) using "amplify add api". If I log something from one of the routes for example:
app.get('/items', function (req, res) {console.log('hello')}
Where do I find the hello?

Is this code in a Lambda function or on a web application? – yudhiesh Jan 19 '21 at 11:51

This is a Lambda function which runs when I make a Get request to an endpoint generated by amplify. – Sam Brodersen Jan 19 '21 at 12:00

You can check it under `Cloudwatch Logs`. – yudhiesh Jan 19 '21 at 12:20

Nice it works now. However if I make a change locally in VS code to the lambda function. I need to use "amplify push" to update the function in the cloud. So I guess my question is: is there a way you can view changes locally? – Sam Brodersen Jan 19 '21 at 13:35

You mean view the logs locally from your terminal in real time? – yudhiesh Jan 19 '21 at 13:48

Yes exactly from my terminal. – Sam Brodersen Jan 19 '21 at 15:22

1Same here. Even in Cloudwatch I cannot see it (any console.log inside API handler function. I'm using nextjs) – Tito Rezende Jul 04 '21 at 14:33

You can view the console.log() using AWS CloudWatch Logs.
But as you want to view the logs from your terminal I would recommend using awslogs.

1How exactly can I see the console.log? I see only the incoming requests and responses. And nothing about my app output. – Роман Коптев May 01 '23 at 17:20

They are logged to CloudWatch, but they might be in a different region from your application (try Oregon).
