Listing all the audit logs for an audit application uses the listAuditEntriesForAuditApp method of the AuditApi.
For more information about this ReST API endpoint, see List Audit Entries (Logs) for an Audit Application.
For a description of the common parameters, such as fields, see Common Parameters.

Note that you have to add values to the include parameter for the logs to include all the data. Also, the audit log value have been truncated for readability.
Executing this code will list the audit logs for passed in audit app id. The audit log values have been trimmed:
