Quick start

Run your first log search in under a minute. No SOQL knowledge required.

Quick start

This walkthrough takes you from "I just opened the Logs page" to "I am reading events from my server" in three steps.

1. Open the Logs page

In the dashboard sidebar, click Logs. The first thing you see is the search bar, with a friendly "READY" panel underneath.

2. Click "Show last 100 events"

The READY panel has two buttons. Click the orange Show last 100 events button. Behind the scenes this fills the search bar with severity exists (a query that matches every event) and runs it.

You should now see your 100 most recent events as a table, with a timeline chart above them.

If nothing shows up:

  • Check the SCOPE chip in the top right. If the wrong project is selected, click it and switch.
  • Check the LAST 24H dropdown in the toolbar. If your server has been quiet for longer, switch to 7D or 30D.
  • If your server is not sending events yet, read Sending events first.

3. Click a row to expand it

Click any row in the result list. The row opens up and shows the full event including every payload field. Many fields are clickable: click one to narrow your search to events that share that value.

That is the whole basic loop:

  • Type a query (or use the buttons / facets to build one for you)
  • Click RUN
  • Click rows to explore
