Action Log
|
The action log interface can be accessed by clicking on the "Action log" navigation item on the left navigation drawer under the system item group. |
The interface provides an insight into the actions registered by a system, such as accessing users, fetching records, creating modules and much more.
The action log comes in handy when debugging the system as it provides a rich insight into the system without the need of low-level system understanding.
The interface allows you to:
-
List registered actions (see Listing actions),
-
see action’s details (see Inspecting actions).
Listing actions
Registered actions are displayed in a table in the middle of the interface. The table provides a brief overview of the action:
-
The timestamp of when the action was registered,
-
the user that caused the action to be registered,
-
what part of the exposed system caused the action to be registered (eg.
api/rest), -
what resource was involved when registering the action,
-
what action was being performed,
-
some additional description to help understand the action,
-
the status of the action:
-
info: an informative log that something happened successfully,
-
warning: a warning that something did not go as expected but was not fatal, such as an invalid login attempt,
-
error: there was an error either in the internal system or in one of the extensions.
