Hi Sanaa,

Logging is used to check the running and debugging of bots from Control Room. These logs are usually auto generated and can be controlled by using this option at each stage level from your process studio. Logs will give you insight of how bot actually ran for any developed solution especially useful in UAT and Production environment where you want to monitor runs.

You can decide if you want the log to be generated for any particular stage or not by selecting 'Enabled' or 'Disabled' logging level. If you only want the logs to be generated on error, you can select the option 'Errors Only'. Also, there is an additional checkbox called 'Dont Log Parameters At This Stage' which upon checking ensures that the input parameters are not logged which are generally used to hide credentials or sensitive data in client sensitive environment to ensure security and compliance.

You can see how the logs look from control room for any session run as shown below:

Hi @Sanaa Fallah

The stage logging indicates the level of logs to be kept for each action. The log can be consulted in the session.

Exists three levels

-> Enabled - the stage name and actions will be logged

-> Disabled - no information about the stage's activity will be logged

-> Errors Only - no information will be logged unless the actions produce an error condition

This is helpfull to trace all your process. Also is important to determine when you want to save an action in the log and when you do not.

You can access the Session log by doble clicking on the Session in the Control Room.

The session log looks like this:

Hope this helps you, and if this solves the problem, remember mark as the best answer.

See you in the community, bye 🙂
