Concept: Logging and Eventing Steps

Logging steps enable you to create customized log messages for output to different destinations. Workday Studio provides these

 steps on the
Palette
:

log

  • Press Ctrl+space when inserting an MVEL expression to access content assist.
cloud-log
Enables you to output customized messages about an integration process to a HTML or CSV, which you can send to the endpoint of your choice.
  • The
    cloud-log
     step generates an output file, but doesn’t direct it anywhere. Use another step to handle the file’s storage or transfer. Example: use a
    Store
     step to send the output file to your tenant.
  • The output file that the
    cloud-log
     step produces always includes 5 columns:
    • Timestamp
    • Level
    • Reference ID
    • Message Summary
    • Message Details
    Use the
    Extra Columns
     tab to add extra information.
    The maximum size for the output file is 256 MB. If your output exceeds 256 MB, you're notified that the results are truncated.
