# Fetch project logs (GET form)

> Fetch the events in a project logs. Equivalent to the POST form of the same path, but with the parameters in the URL query rather than in the request body. For more complex queries, use the `POST /btql` endpoint.

        limit the number of traces fetched


        Fetch queries may be paginated if the total result size is expected to
        be large (e.g. project_logs which accumulate over a long time). Note
        that fetch queries only support pagination in descending time order
        (from latest to earliest `_xact_id`. Furthermore, later pages may return
        rows which showed up in earlier pages, except with an earlier
        `_xact_id`. This happens because pagination occurs over the whole
        version history of the event log. You will most likely want to exclude
        any such duplicate, outdated rows (by `id`) from your combined result
        set.


        The `limit` parameter controls the number of full traces to return. So
        you may end up with more individual rows than the specified limit if you
        are fetching events containing traces.

            that correctly. Instead, these values are just used to help you

            failures. For example, a summarization app might have one score that

            word similarity between the generated and grouth truth summary. The
            word similarity score could help you determine whether the
