Logging in Itential Platform captures operational events, errors, and diagnostic information. Use logs to monitor system behavior, troubleshoot issues, and track automation workflows.
For Itential Automation Gateway (IAG) logs, see Audit Logs.
Log formats
Itential Platform supports two output formats:
| Format | Available | Use for |
|---|---|---|
| Structured JSON | Platform 2023.2 and Platform 6.2+ | Log aggregation tools (Splunk, Datadog, Elasticsearch), automated parsing, new deployments |
| Standard | All versions | Backward compatibility, existing parsers, gradual migration |
Use structured JSON logs. They provide better security, easier parsing, and enable field-based searches.
