# Get log parser configuration

`GET /v1/log-parsers/{parser-type}`

Retrieve the configuration document for the given server-side log parser
(syslog, Windows event log, or OpenTelemetry log). The configuration is an
XML document returned verbatim in the `content` field; an empty string means
no parser rules are configured.

## Response `200`

Log parser configuration retrieved successfully

- LogParser
  - `type` 'syslog' | 'windows-event' | 'opentelemetry' — Log parser type
  - `content` string — Parser configuration as an XML document (empty string if no rules are configured)

## Other responses

- `403` — Access denied (requires "Server configuration" access right)
- `404` — Unknown parser type
