Why you need to check node logs. This seems to be more of Application logging & can be added or checked in syslog.

@jay97 i understand your problem and you can check in Import Set module where you can filter with table as incident (check staging table if using).
It will provide set of record where you can open latest on and check their in section tab which provides ignored/updated/inserted details with created by API user id, there you will also get reason behind failure.
Hope this will help you.
