API for Log export

Some users are querying features about log export, like alerting etc.

Can you provide a API key with which one can access the log file programatically?

Like this you may:

Create a secure API token via the web ui
Use this API token to securely access your log files (instead of manually logging in and clicking the download button)
Feed the downloaded log files to e.g. Azure sentinel by a scheduled Azure function
Create an alert if a log matches your rule. Like "send e-mail if malware domain was resolved by client"

Thanks!

I want this for a locally hosted SIEM in my homelab. An API should be sufficient to build your own syslog/Azure Sentinel/etc connector. Sample code for popular options would be awesome, but the API is the first step.

We have a syslog export (see https://help.nextdns.io/t/p8h1q6m/syslog-feed).

Our API is available in close beta for business and school plans (see https://nextdns.io/api).
