## Description

This API downloads the file associated with an audit log report.
            
If the report is not yet complete, you will receive a `ReportNotFinished` error.  To check if a report is complete,
use the `GetAuditLogReport` API.
            
Reports are run on the server.  When complete, the report file will be available for download
for up to 30 days after completion.  To run a report, you should follow these steps:
            
* Begin a report by calling the report's ExportAuditLogs API.

* Check the status of a report by calling `GetAuditLogReport` and passing in the report's `id` value.
