Live Logs

> Watch your route's execution logs in real time -- both dev and production traffic.

Live Logs streams log entries from your route into the Builder's terminal as they happen. This lets you monitor production traffic without leaving the editor.

Activating live logs

1. Expand the Console at the bottom of the Builder. 2. Click the Live Logs button in the terminal panel. 3. The terminal shows "Live logs enabled - listening for executions..." 4. Logs appear automatically whenever the route is called.

What you see

Each log entry includes:

| Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | Timestamp | When the log was generated | | Message | The log content | | Node type | Which node produced the log (if applicable) | | Execution time | How long the operation took (if applicable) |

Log entries are color-coded by level:

| Level | Color | Meaning | |-------|-------|---------| | Error | Red | Something failed | | Info | Blue | General information | | Node | Gray | Output from a specific node | | Success | Green | Successful operation |

Dev vs. production logs

Live Logs captures executions from all callers of the route -- not just your test runs. This means you can see:

• Dev executions -- When you click Test in the Builder
• Production executions -- When real users or external services call the deployed route

This makes Live Logs useful for monitoring a route after deployment to see how it handles real traffic.

Connection handling

• If the connection drops, the terminal shows "Reconnecting..." and automatically reconnects after 2 seconds.
• When an execution finishes, the stream restarts to capture the next execution.
• The terminal auto-scrolls to show the newest entries.

Live Logs and Debug Mode cannot be active at the same time. Enabling one disables the other. Use Debug Mode when you need to trace a single test execution in detail. Use Live Logs when you want to monitor ongoing traffic.
