The system can produce the following types of log files during run-time:
Pico logs: Logs generated from each Pico
Debug logs: Debug logs are generated when workflows have turned on logging to file. See Log and Notification Functions.
APL logs: When some log commands are used in APL they are logged to a file, see Log and Notification Functions.
See Log Properties for more information.
To view the Log Files, go to Manage → Tools & Monitoring and then select Log Files.
