<a name="review-job-logs"></a>

You can [configure your AWS Batch jobs](using_cloudwatch_logs.md) to send log information to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. This way, you can view different logs from your jobs in one convenient location. For more information, see [Using CloudWatch Logs with AWS Batch](using_cloudwatch_logs.md).

You can also use **Job logs** in the AWS Batch console to monitor or troubleshoot an AWS Batch job.

1. Open the [AWS Batch console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/batch/home).

1. Choose **Jobs**. For more detailed information on sorting and filtering job in the job queue, see [View AWS Batch jobs in a job queue](view-jobs.md) and [Search for jobs in a job queue](searching-filtering-jobs.md)

**Tip**  
If there are several jobs in the job queue, you can turn on **Searching and filtering** to find a job faster. For more information, see [Search AWS Batch for jobs in a job queue](searching-filtering-jobs.md).
