# CloudwatchLogsExportConfiguration
<a name="API_CloudwatchLogsExportConfiguration"></a>

The configuration setting for the log types to be enabled for export to CloudWatch Logs for a specific DB instance or DB cluster.

The `EnableLogTypes` and `DisableLogTypes` arrays determine which logs will be exported (or not exported) to CloudWatch Logs. The values within these arrays depend on the DB engine being used.

For more information about exporting CloudWatch Logs for Amazon RDS DB instances, see [Publishing Database Logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs ](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_LogAccess.html#USER_LogAccess.Procedural.UploadtoCloudWatch) in the *Amazon RDS User Guide*.

For more information about exporting CloudWatch Logs for Amazon Aurora DB clusters, see [Publishing Database Logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/USER_LogAccess.html#USER_LogAccess.Procedural.UploadtoCloudWatch) in the *Amazon Aurora User Guide*.
