Is it possible to change the HTTP REST API log level to WARN for example? I don’t want to divert the logs to `http_log_file` but also prevent the spam on each request.  
Thank you!

You can hide those playing with the `--loglevel` flag:

```auto
$ ipfs-cluster-service --loglevel restapilog:error daemon

```

will effectively hide all INFO messages produced by the API requests.
