Allow to generate/download MongoDB Server Audit process logs
Problem Statement,
What is the problem? As of now (2021-03-17) Ops Manager does not support downloading MongoDB Server Audit process logs via UI/API. Atlas does have support for it (via GET /groups/{GROUP-ID}/clusters/{HOSTNAME}/logs/{LOG-NAME}
API call).
Why is this a problem? Users needs to be able to download MongoDB Server Audit process logs via Ops Manager, same way as they do for MongoDB Server process logs/FTDC and MongoDB Agent logs (this significantly simplify troubleshooting, when required). Some users require to download MongoDB Server Audit process logs programmatically to store them in Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system.
Proposal,
* Add MongoDB Server Audit process logs option support in POST /groups/{PROJECT-ID}/logCollectionJobs
and in GET /groups/{PROJECT-ID}/logCollectionJobs/{JOB-ID}/download
Public API calls as well as in Ops Manager Project UI. This will align functionality between Atlas and Ops Manager.

Also, when we are using the keyhole having FTDC is helpful.
