Using Log File Views

The Log Viewer enables you to view your log files more easily. For example, you can view extra information about each log entry, search them or change the columns that are displayed. There are also some pre-defined views that highlight and filter data for specific components of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM, or you can create your own.

There are 7 pre-defined views available in Log Viewer.
