## Monitoring

The Monitoring section in Agen for SaaS provides full visibility into your MCP Gateway activity. Every tool call, policy evaluation, approval event, and configuration change is recorded and searchable.

### Key capabilities

| Capability | Description |
|  --- | --- |
| **Unified visibility** | See all MCP Gateway events in a single timeline — tool calls, policy decisions, approvals, and errors. |
| **Structured logs** | Every event is recorded as a structured JSON log entry with metadata including tool name, user, tenant, timestamp, policy actions, and response details. |
| **Filters** | Filter events by time range, tool, user, tenant, action type, or status. |
| **Real-time streaming** | Stream logs to third-party monitoring platforms for centralized observability. |


### Monitoring sections

| Section | Description |
|  --- | --- |
| **[Logs](/agen-for-saas/monitoring/logs)** | View and analyze individual MCP tool execution logs with full request/response details. |
| **[Streaming](/agen-for-saas/monitoring/streaming)** | Configure real-time log streaming to external monitoring platforms. |


### What is logged

Every interaction with the MCP Gateway generates a log entry containing:

- **Timestamp** — When the event occurred.
- **Tool name** — Which tool was invoked.
- **User identity** — Who made the request (from JWT claims).
- **Tenant** — Which tenant the request belongs to.
- **AI platform** — Which AI platform or agent initiated the request.
- **Policy decisions** — Which policies were evaluated and what actions were taken (allow, deny, step-up, approval).
- **Approval status** — Whether an approval was requested, pending, approved, or rejected.
- **Response** — The tool's response (with data protection masking applied where configured).
- **Duration** — How long the request took.
