Create log
Initiates the creation of a library service log or drive service log.
It can take 20 minutes or longer to create a library service log. Progress can be monitored with
the GET /v1/logs or GET /v1/tasks
command. Log creation is complete when the state attribute changes from inProgress
to complete
.
The creation of a drive service log is almost immediate and thus is not tracked via a task.
