Log Files (4.2)
- Jenni Wallin
The system can produce the following types of log files during runtime:
Pico logs: Logs generated from each Pico.
Debug logs: Debug logs are generated when workflows have been configured to log to file, see Log and Notification Functions (4.2).
APL logs: When certain log commands are used in APL, they are logged to a file, see Log and Notification Functions (4.2).
To view the Log Files, go to Manage → Tools & Monitoring and then select Log Files.
