SFTP Logs Panel
ProThe SFTP Logs Panel is the staff workspace for streaming game-server logs into Discord in real time. Configure an SFTP connection, point at a log file, pick the Discord channels to stream into, and start monitoring. Pro feature. Available in the dashboard and via /sftplogs panel in Discord.

Stream game-server logs into Discord. Connect over SFTP, point at the log file, pick the channels each event type lands in, and start monitoring. Parsed events feed AutoMod, identity verification, and the audit log. Pro feature. Available via /sftplogs panel in Discord.
What is this?
The log-monitor surface. Configure an SFTP connection to your game-server host, point at the chat / kill / admin log file, and pick the Discord channels each event class streams into. Parsed lines become structured events the rest of Arkanis can act on (in-game verification, AutoMod triggers, audit-log entries).
Why you might want it
For game servers that don't expose RCON natively or that write important data only to disk, SFTP log monitoring is the way to get those events into your moderation stack. It also enables in-game identity verification: a member types a one-time code in game chat, the SFTP monitor picks it up, and Arkanis links the Discord and Steam accounts.
How it appears in Discord
Staff with the panel_logs capability run /sftplogs panel in Discord to open the ephemeral staff panel below.
Where it lives in the dashboard
On the dashboard the SFTP Logs Panel is the last entry in the Infrastructure sidebar section, after Pterodactyl / Pelican.
Stream game-server logs into Discord. Configure SFTP, pick channels, start monitoring.
How to open this panel
Pick your server, then click Infrastructure → SFTP Logs Panel. The page shows the configured connection (if any), the log file path being watched, monitor status, and the channel mapping.
Staff with panel_logs run /sftplogs panel. Requires Pro and a configured SFTP connection.
What you can do from here
Host, port, username, password (or private key). The setup flow tests the connection before saving. See SFTP Log Monitoring.
Set the path to the unified log file (or files) your game server writes to. The monitor tails by polling; new lines stream into Discord shortly after they hit disk.
Pick which Discord channels each event class lands in: chat, kills, admin actions, joins / leaves. Avoids a single firehose channel by category.
When both are configured, RCON actions reference the same player records the SFTP log feeds. One identity, two surfaces. See RCON Panel.
Pause monitoring during maintenance, resume after. Status shows the last parsed line, the parser's position in the file, and any connection errors.
The same SFTP credentials power a lightweight file browser for one-off reads and edits. Evrima users get a one-click Open Game.ini shortcut.
Who can use this panel
panel_logs— opens the dashboard panel and the Discord/sftplogs panelcommand.logs_view— read-only access (file browser, monitor status).logs_manage— configure SFTP connection, set log file path, map channels, start / stop monitoring.
See Roles & Permissions. Adding or rotating the SFTP credential opens a re-auth window — it's a high-trust action because the same credential can read and edit server files.
