Management console

AWS CLI

In the management console, select the folder containing the notification channel.
Navigate to Cloud Notification Service.
Select a channel.
At the top right, click Edit.
Under Logging, enable the Write logs option.
In the Folder list, select a folder to house the log group.
In the Log group field, select an existing log group or create a new one.
To stop logging, disable Write logs.

If you do not have the AWS CLI yet, install and configure it.
Run this command:
```
aws sns set-endpoint-attributes \
    --endpoint-arn <endpoint_ARN> \
    --attributes LoggingPath=<folder_ID>/<log_group_ID>
```
Where:
- --endpoint-arn: Endpoint ID (ARN).
- --attributes: Endpoint parameters. To configure logging, use the LoggingPath parameter.
- folder_ID: ID of the folder housing the log group. The folder must be in the same cloud as the app.
- log_group_ID: ID of the log group to send logs to. This is an optional parameter; if no ID is specified, the default log group is used.
To disable logging, provide an empty value for the LoggingPath attribute.
