The system logs all actions with Cloud Desktop resources in an operation list. Each operation gets its own unique ID.

Management console
CLI
API

You can get a list of operations for a specific resource. The steps below explain how to do this for a desktop. The same steps apply to other resources as well.

  1. In the management console, open the folder containing the desktop.

  2. Select Cloud Desktop.

  3. In the left-hand panel, select Desktops.

  4. Select the desktop you need.

  5. Navigate to the Operations panel for the selected desktop.

    You will see its list of operations.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud (CLI) command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified when creating the CLI profile is used by default. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

To get a list of operations for the Cloud Desktop resource, run this command:

yc desktops <resource_type> list-operations <resource_name_or_ID>

Example

Getting a list of operations for a desktop:

yc desktops desktop list-operations e3v7nfkhn0q4********

Result:

+----------------------+---------------------+----------------------+---------------------+---------+-----------------+
|          ID          |     CREATED AT      |      CREATED BY      |     MODIFIED AT     | STATUS  |   DESCRIPTION   |
+----------------------+---------------------+----------------------+---------------------+---------+-----------------+
| e3vlaf6r4241******** | 2024-05-14 17:55:00 | aje9k8luj4qf******** | 2024-05-14 17:55:00 | RUNNING | Restart desktop |
| e3vns4mmfsal******** | 2024-05-14 17:41:14 | aje9k8luj4qf******** | 2024-05-14 17:45:17 | DONE    | Create desktop  |
+----------------------+---------------------+----------------------+---------------------+---------+-----------------+

By default, operation information is displayed as text. To get more detailed information, specify the yaml or json output data format using the --format flag:

yc desktops desktop list-operations e3v7nfkhn0q4******** --format yaml

Result:
