Retrieving Part of the Log File

Retrieving part of the log file is not supported when using Jersey.

To retrieve part of the log file, make a GET request to /actuator/logfile by using the Range header, as shown in the following curl-based example:spring-doc.cn

$ curl 'http://localhost:8080/actuator/logfile' -i -X GET \
    -H 'Range: bytes=0-1023'

The preceding example retrieves the first 1024 bytes of the log file. The resulting response is similar to the following:spring-doc.cn

HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content
