GetLogStatistics1 API¶

Returns log dates and entry counts for a specified log type over a caller-supplied lookback window. Returns one entry per day in the window, including days with zero entries. Use this API to discover which dates have log data before calling GetLogs to retrieve the actual entries.

For a fixed 365-day window, use GetLogStatistics.
