+## Audit event streaming on merge request create actions
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/90911) in GitLab 15.2.
+
+Stream audit events that relate to merge request create actions using the `/logs` endpoint.
+
+Send API requests that contain the `X-Gitlab-Audit-Event-Type` header with value `merge_request_create`. GitLab responds with JSON payloads with an
+`event_type` field set to `merge_request_create`.
+
+### Headers
+
+Headers are formatted as follows:
+
+```plaintext
+POST /logs HTTP/1.1
+Host: <DESTINATION_HOST>
+Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
+X-Gitlab-Audit-Event-Type: merge_request_create
+X-Gitlab-Event-Streaming-Token: <DESTINATION_TOKEN>
+```
+
+### Example payload
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": 1,
+  "author_id": 1,
+  "entity_id": 24,
+  "entity_type": "Project",
