   + If your server has a managed workflow associated with it, you can view logs for the workflow runs.
**Note**  
The format for the log stream for the workflow is `username.workflowId.uniqueStreamSuffix`. For example, **decrypt-user.w-a1111222233334444.aaaa1111bbbb2222** could be the name of a log stream for user **decrypt-user** and workflow **w-a1111222233334444**.
