Hi @Neeraj Kumar,

You can follow the below steps to disable logging at the process level rather than at the stage level:

Edit --> All Stages --> Disable logging

Please let me know if it doesn't work for you.

...you might want to consider the use of 'On Error only' rather than no logging.

Happy coding!

Yup exactly Paul.

@ManpreetKaur1 - Disabling wont help in any ways. Error only need to be there but don't log parameter need to checked. I am looking for this not complete disabling.

I don't think there is any option to do a global enable/disable on the 'Don't log params' option.

As an alternative to the missing 'Global' button, you could run a script on the '.bprelease' XML that changes the logging setting for each action to the required value. This would be part of your deployment process where you set values to the release file according to your requirements in your production environment.

Obviously, that requires you to make a new release including all processes you want to change to no logging, and from then on run this script on each release to be deployed. I think the XML element you're looking for is '<loginihibit', that's either not present, or it is there without a value or it has a value. Find whatever value for this element you require and add or remove from the XML accordingly.

Alternatively, you follow Manpreet's instruction to edit each process and change its logging settings.

As a last resort, you might as the good folks at BP if they would be able to provide you with an SQL script to change the settings to your liking in the database.

...please note that the order of the alternatives above is not the preferred or best order, but rather the order they came up in my head as I wrote this. Choose your favorite and go for it!

Hello @Neeraj Kumar,

I think @PvD_SE has laid it out pretty well. There is no global mechanism for enabling/disabling stage-specific logging, that I'm aware of. I've pinged a few people to see if someone has an existing script or utility hidden away in their personal bag-o-tricks that might cover this. If I get a response I'll post it here.

If there is an existing utility/script it would be doing the same thing Paul has discussed. In other words, editing the XML of the process either directly in the BPAProcess table or via .bprelease/.bpobject/.bpprocess/.xml file.

Cheers,

@Neeraj Kumar,

After asking around internally, it seems all you have are the global enable/disable logging options in Studio under Edit -> All Stages -> Enable/Disable. If you've set the Don't log properties on this stage flag, its value will be retained even if you disable logging. Then, if you re-enable logging the flag will still be set. So it seems you would have to edit the XML directly.

Cheers,

@Neeraj Kumar,

Absolutely. You can submit pretty much anything as an idea if you believe it will benefit the users and product. 😉
