- The logs viewer provides many features useful for reading and searching session logs.
- By default the last page of the log is shown, enabling the you to determine from the last line of the log the circumstances in which the process exited.
- You may navigate to other pages using the arrow buttons at the bottom of the form:
- the double arrowed buttons will skip to the earliest/latest page
- the single arrowed buttons will navigate to the previous/next page
TIP: To view larger or smaller pages, adjust the value in the bottom right controlling the number of rows per page.
TIP: Please be aware that the larger the page size, the longer it will take to fetch each page from the database:
- depending on the size of your log and
- the performance of your database server, this could take some time.
Investigating Issues and Problems:
- The Log Viewer is used to inspect the log of a session, either as it is running or after it has finished.
- This is especially handy for reviewing the workings of a progress and tracking down problems.
- The Log Viewer has a search function enabling you to look through the (often numerous) rows of a log and the visibility of columns can be configured to suit.
Viewing Stage IDs:
- The facility to view or hide stage IDs from the log is available via the checkbox in the upper portion of the form.
- Stage IDs are Blue Prism's way of identifying stages in a process diagram, rather than by name.
- By displaying stage IDs, an advanced user may check for internal inconsistencies in a process.
- However, few users will find this information useful. You may safely ignore this feature if you do not understand it.
