Extending Log Life?

Greetings,

I am trying to extend the time I can see logs in the Decisions logging folder. How would I go about this?

Hello!

So the logs are not retained for a set length of time, but rather follow these two rules:

1. Logs fill-up files in the Decisions logs filepath. Log files have an editable maximum size, and when that size is reached the logs rollover to another log file. Only logs from the most recent file are shown in the Decisions UI

2. If the server is restarted, logs rollover as they would if the file filled-up.

You can edit the log settings by right-clicking the Logging folder and selecting Edit Log Settings (https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/logging-settings). By setting the max log filesize to a larger number, you can hold the logs for a longer time before they rollover. These log settings can also be altered in the Decisions settings.xml file.

We hope this helps!
