Application Logs

Application Logs provide a real-time view of what's happening inside TagoCore and its plugins. Think of them as a detailed activity feed that helps you monitor system health, troubleshoot issues, and understand how your platform is performing.

Choosing Log Sources (Channels)​

You can filter logs by their source using the Channel selector. This helps you focus on specific parts of your system:

Application Channel (default): Shows logs from the core TagoCore system - startup messages, device connections, data processing activities, and system-level events.

Plugin Channels: Each installed plugin has its own dedicated channel. Select a plugin's channel to see only logs related to that specific plugin's activities, making it easier to debug plugin-specific issues.

Understanding Log Types​

TagoCore displays two types of log messages to help you quickly identify their importance:

Error Logs​

These appear in red and indicate problems that need your attention. Error logs help you identify:

  • Connection failures with devices or external services
  • Configuration issues that prevent proper operation
  • Plugin crashes or malfunctions
  • Data processing errors

Some error logs may include technical details (called a stack trace) to help with troubleshooting.

Verbose Logs​

These are informational messages that show normal system activity. Verbose logs are more common and indicate healthy operation:

  • Successful device data reception
  • Plugin startup and shutdown events
  • Regular system maintenance activities
  • Data processing confirmations

These logs help you confirm that everything is working as expected and provide visibility into your system's daily operations.
