You can save log files to a target bucket when the following conditions are met with the Object Lock feature for the bucket:
The Default Object Retention setting is enabled.
The Enable Compliance Mode option is selected.
In addition, you can manually download pre-existing administrative activity logs as a file. Note that it may take an hour or so for the files to update.
Setting Up Administrative Logging

Click Security on the Wasabi menu.
Click Administrative Logging.
Be sure the Enabled box is checked.
To ensure all future administrative activity logs are retained, enable the Save to Bucket option. You must be a Root user to log directly to a bucket.
Click in the Target Bucket area and select the bucket in which to store log files. As noted in the overview of this article, only a bucket that has the Object Lock feature set (Default Object Retention is enabled and Enable Compliance Mode is selected) is available as a target bucket.
You can search for a bucket name in the Search box (such as if a long list of bucket names is displayed). After you select a target bucket, click Select.
Enter a Logging Prefix to include in the log file name. Each log file will start with the characters you enter.
Click Save Settings to confirm your settings.
Note that if you are changing the target bucket, it may take an hour or so to create the log file.
