hello [Christ\_Bryan](http://community.ofelia.com/users/christbryan "View user profile."), To know more about logs, you can take a look at https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/2022.2/setup-dev-environment/logging Myabe for your need, you can also use the Case API: https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/2022.2/api/cases-process-instance-api Cheers! ---

Hello, Is it possible to retrieve the information stored in the h2 database from the BDM? ---

It seems like the links don't help. I recently saw a webinar on process analytics with Bonita and with that you do process mining and to do it you have to retrieve logs, but I don't know where and how to retrieve logs. Don't know if you get my issue.   ---

Hello [Christ\_Bryan](http://community.ofelia.com/users/christbryan "View user profile."), To access your h2 BDM database, open the project explorer contextual menu of your BDM and choose Browse data (h2 console). You may run from here some SQL queries. These links might help you: https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/2022.2/getting-started/define-business-data-model If I understand well, you'll need to get the information of the cases (the instances of your processes) to analyze them. To fetch those can use the Case API. This example might help: https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/2022.2/api/manage-a-process#\_query\_archived\_process\_instances Cheers! ---

Hey [Christ\_Bryan](http://community.ofelia.com/users/christbryan "View user profile."), Indeed the example is using the Java APIs. If you're not using a Java application, you can use the REST APIs to get the equivalent information from your own application. For example, for querying the archived process instances: Search archived cases (using the process id of your case to list all related cases of that process) https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/2022.2/api/cases-process-instance-api#\_search\_for\_a\_case If you're not sure how the REST API work, take a look at this: https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/2022.2/api/rest-api-overview Hope this helps ---

Hello you all, Finally extracted the event data using the REST API technique. Thanks for all your support. Cheers, ---

For that I used the information from the website as I said (REST API) and the tutorial on Postman still from Bonitasoft tutorial to obtain the information. Here is the link to the tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUgyEhIc3zQ   ---
