ItemDescription

Show Entries

Entries matching the search criteria are displayed in groups of 500. Show Entries contains a list of all groups of 500, from which one is selected. Note that the full content of the log messages for a group is fetched from the database once the group is selected. This to have as little impact as possible on the overall performance of the system.

Severity

The severity of the message, can be any of the following:

  • I (information) - An informative message which is logged, for instance, when a user logs in or a workflow is activated.

  • W (warning) - A warning message is also informative, but is considered to be slightly more serious than an information message. A warning message is logged, for instance, when a workflow sends data to ECS.

  • E (Error) - An error is logged when any part of the system fails, for instance, when a workflow aborts. Double-clicking an error message will display the Stack Trace Viewer. This information must always be included when contacting Support, in cases involving error messages.

  • D (Disaster) - Usually never used, other than possibly for user defined agents

Note
titleNote!

System log displays log messages according to your Log Area selection: User, System, and/or workflow. To have System Log present agent-related messages you need to configure an agent event from the Event Notification Configuration. For further information, see Add Event in Event Notifications Configuration.


Username

If enabled, all activities performed by the selected user will match. If disabled, all user activities will match.

Note
titleNote!

This only applies to events invoked by users, such as inserting, updating and deleting data in the system. Thus, it does not apply to workflow ownership and can therefore not be utilized to filter out a specific user's workflows.


Message

Log entries may be scanned for occurrences of specific messages. Using all lower case letters in the text field will result in case insensitive search. If upper case letters are used anywhere in the text field the search will be case sensitive.
