experimental: Returns a compressed (.gz) log file that contains a range of log messages for the specified host for the specified project.

MongoDB updates process and audit logs from the cluster backend infrastructure every five minutes. Logs are stored in chunks approximately five minutes in length, but this duration may vary. If you poll the API for log files, we recommend polling every five minutes even though consecutive polls could contain some overlapping logs. This feature isn't available for M0 free clusters, M2, M5, flex, or serverless clusters. To use this resource, the requesting API Key must have the Project Data Access Read Only or higher role. The API does not support direct calls with the json response schema. You must request a gzip response schema using an accept header of the format: "Accept: application/vnd.atlas.YYYY-MM-DD+gzip". This command is invoking the endpoint with OperationID: 'getHostLogs'. For more information about flags, format of --file and examples, see: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/v2/#tag/Monitoring-and-Logs/operation/getHostLogs
