# Monitor Your GraphQL API

To monitor your Amazon AppSync GraphQL API, turn on logging to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. For details, see [Amazon AppSync: Monitoring and Logging](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appsync/latest/devguide/monitoring.html).

You can use CloudWatch metrics to monitor and provide alerts about specific events that can result in HTTP status codes.

  - Indicates an issue with the client configuration. To check Salesforce authentication settings, refer to [Set Up Salesforce Connect to Access Amazon RDS Data](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/platform/sf-connect-amazon-rds/guide/setup-AWS.md).
  - Contact Support, if necessary.
- `5XXError`. For example, `500`.
  - Indicates an issue on the server side with Amazon AppSync, the resolver, or the database.
