Log

Writes an entry to the flow log for each record that passes, with a fixed message, the chosen severity and the record and its metadata attached, then forwards the record unchanged. Use it to trace what goes through a branch or to log errors from error pins.

Pins

Pin	Kind	Types	Description
Input	input	any	Record to log.
Output	output	same as input	The unchanged record, forwarded after logging.

Configuration

Field	Type	Default	Description
LogLevel	dropdown: 1 VERBOSE, 2 DEBUG, 3 INFO, 4 WARN, 5 ERROR, 6 FATAL	3	Severity of the log entry.
LogMessage	string (text editor)		Required. The message text, written as is (no placeholders).
NoTruncation	boolean	false	true: long property values of the attached record and metadata are not shortened.

Behaviour

• For each record one log entry is written with: the message, the severity, the flow id and name, the component, the record (serialized to JSON, with its record id) and the metadata (serialized to JSON, with correlation and session id). Then the record is sent to Output.
• By default long values in the attached JSON are truncated; NoTruncation = true keeps them complete.
• On start, if LogLevel is lower than the flow's log level, an indicator and a warning tell you that the entries will not be visible.

Notes

• The message is static; the record content is visible in the attached data of the log entry. To log a computed text, build it with a script component before the Log.
• Logging large records with NoTruncation = true on every message can produce very large logs.
• Avoid logging records that contain secrets (passwords, tokens); they are stored in the log as JSON.

Example

{ "LogLevel": 5, "LogMessage": "Order import failed", "NoTruncation": false }
