:index:`Event Log Structure`
------------------------------------------------

A Event Log Structure is returned as a result of :meth:`~jetstream.serverinterface.ServerInterface.getEventLog`. The structure consits of two reliable keys: ``_event`` and ``_timestamp``. Any additional keys are dependent on the event type, typically those as described in the associated structure.

   :index:`_timestamp <pair: Event Log Structure; _timestamp>`
