Lnav Self-Serve Access

Lnav Self-Serve Access cuts through the noise. No waiting on admin approvals. No clumsy pipelines. Just open Lnav, hit the data, and start reading your logs with full interactive power.

With self-serve access, every engineer can run queries, search patterns, and inspect service output without being blocked by permissions or centralized gatekeepers. This is not a reduced mode—it's real Lnav with full coloring, filtering, and SQL querying against structured logs.

Self-serve means instant visibility into live environments. Pair it with structured logs and you get full field-based searches in seconds. JSON, syslog, plain text—Lnav handles them all. Your workflow stays in the terminal, the runtime stays fast, and your feedback loop shrinks to minutes.

Key advantages of Lnav Self-Serve Access:

  • Direct log inspection without waiting for another team.
  • Immediate context by jumping between related entries.
  • Ad-hoc SQL against logs for quick metrics.
  • Unified view across multiple files and streams.

Security can still be enforced with scoped access, but the control shifts from centralized hands to the people doing the work. You eliminate friction while keeping audit trails intact.

Lnav’s self-serve model scales with the team. No complex UI layers. No hunting for tabs or dashboards. Just run lnav from your terminal, connect to your data source, and work.

Stop reading static logs in slow web tools. Spin up Lnav Self-Serve Access and see everything yourself.
