Answer 1

You would query hourly event log files in the same way you query 24-hour log files. As per https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/event_log_file_hourly_query.htm

1. In Workbench, select utilities | REST Explorer.
2. Replace the existing text with:/services/data/v API_version .0/query?q=SELECT+Id+,+EventType+,+Interval+,+LogDate+,+LogFile+
3. Append the following to the query to make it complete: FROM+EventLogFile+WHERE+EventType+=+'URI',+Interval+=+'Hourly'
4. In the query, Interval=Hourly makes sure that only hourly event log file data is returned. Alternatively, you can use Sequence to filter out 24-hour event log files (Sequence!=0). To get both hourly and 24-hour files, use Sequence>=0.
5. Click Execute.

Incase you are unable to query this information despite having needed licenses, you can log a case with Salesforce support to verify if the perm "Hourly event log files" is enabled in your salesforce org.
