Being able to monitor the application's log outputs is crucial for efficient troubleshooting of your applications. The Session Logs function lets you do just that.
From the application sessions screen, click on the Actions button to see the logs for a specific session.
This will take you to the Session logs screen. The Application's name and the specific session's ID you are viewing are shown. The log output is shown in a descending order, i.e., the latest logs are shown at the bottom of the output window.
Containers
Any sidecar configured to run alongside the application for this session (e.g. Redis, MongoDB etc.)
Show Timestamp
Toggle timestamp visibility in the output
Log messages may or may not have a timestamp in the message itself
Number of lines
Sets the maximum number of lines of logs that is displayed (default = 100 lines of log output)
Filter(s)
After Timestamp - Set a timestamp only on or after which such logs will be shown (default = no timestamp, so show the latest log messages)
Log text - Show logs to only those containing the text specified. Note that:
The filters are applied at different stages:
The timestamp and number of lines filters are applied first (i.e. at the time of query) then,
The text filters are applied in Nuvolos after the logs are retrieved.
For example: there are 150 lines of log output for a given application, the last 100 of which are comprised of:
50 lines with the text warning
30 lines with empty log messages
20 lines that do not contain the relevant text ("warning")
With the default filters, before the warning
text filter is applied, the last 100 lines of log output will be shown. When warning
is typed in the text filter, the text filter is then applied, so the log output displays 50 lines with the relevant text.
In the following example, log output with filters:
100 lines of logs
only on or after 02 May 2025 12:00:00
containing "config.yaml"
are shown.
Allows you to select which application or sidecar (a.k.a. ) you wish to see the logs for
is the application you have configured (e.g. Visual Studio Code, Jupyter Lab etc.)
