Troubleshooting
No log groups found
Ask the user for specific log group names. Common patterns: /aws/lambda/function-name,
/aws/apigateway/api-name, or custom application log groups.
Access denied errors
Verify AWS credentials have logs:DescribeLogGroups, logs:DescribeLogStreams,
logs:StartQuery, and logs:GetQueryResults permissions.
Query timeouts
Reduce the time window or limit results. Large log groups may require multiple smaller queries.
