How do I get status, logs of last run `state.highstate` in Salt?

Question

I applied state using:

$sudo salt 'api-*' state.highstate -l debug -v

Some states failed and I scrolled down, fixed some and now I can't scroll up (my terminal doesn't save full session) to see the stdout.

Now I don't want to run high state again. I checked jobs.lookup_jid, but it doesn't display anything useful.

You could check the log files at /var/log/salt/minion
