# Service API endpoints
{: #endpoints_api}

Access IBM Cloud Logs by using the listed endpoints for each supported IBM Cloud [location](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cloud-logs?topic=cloud-logs-regions&format=markdown).
{: shortdesc}

The endpoints can be found on the [service instance details page](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cloud-logs?topic=cloud-logs-observe&interface=ui&format=markdown#observe-cloud-ui).

These endpoints are proxied using IBM Cloud&reg; Internet Services, which uses IP address described in [CIS allowlisted IP addresses](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cis?topic=cis-cis-allowlisted-ip-addresses&format=markdown).

## Private endpoints
{: #private-endpoints}

Private endpoints restrict access to the IBM Cloud private network. After creation, a service instance can be accessed using private endpoints.

| Geography | Region                           | Endpoint | Purpose |
|-----------|----------------------------------|---------------------|--------------------|

The private API endpoint is only supported in Montreal (`ca-mon`) using a [VPE](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cloud-logs?topic=cloud-logs-vpe-connection&interface=cli&format=markdown).
{: note}


When connecting to a private endpoint using a [VPE](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cloud-logs?topic=cloud-logs-vpe-connection&interface=cli&format=markdown), use port 443. When connecting to a private endpoint using a [CSE](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-service-endpoints-overview&format=markdown), use port 3443.
