API log in/out filling logs

RouterOS General

We are using software to make changes to our Mikrotik via API. The problem is that every minute we get a log in and log out entry, this makes it full quickly and consequently makes the log useless.

Is there any way to simply hide API log in/out?

I’ve tried to quiet the logging but it doesn’t seem to work as expected, in fact it’s only doubling up the lines.
/system logging action
add memory-lines=1 name=quiet target=memory
/system logging
add action=quiet topics=system,info,account

This is quite an old post but wondering if anyone has found a solution? Getting stats from routers via API every X seconds fills the logs in a couple of hours.

In case anyone else is looking for answer I found ‘/system logging add topics=info,!account’ cuts out this noise from the API
WARNING you won’t however get other login events from Winbox etc being logged so use with care!
