# Exporting Logs to a File

To export plug-in logs to a file, modify the `logback.xml`.

Procedure
1. Navigate to the `<BW_HOME>\bwcloud\<version_number>\config\design\logback` directory and open the `logback.xml` file.
   Note: When deploying an application in TIBCO Enterprise Administrator, you must navigate to the `TIBCO_HOME\bw\domains\mydomain\appnodes\myspace\mynode` directory to find the `logback.xml` file.
2. Add the following node to specify the file location:

       <appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
          <file>c:/.log</file>
             <encoder>
               <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36}-%msg%n</pattern>
             </encoder>
       </appender>

   The `file` tag defines the location to which the log is exported, and the value in the tag is the absolute path of the file.

   Note: You also need to add the file name in the file path.
3. To enable exporting the logs to a file, add the following node to the root node at the end of the `logback.xml` file:

       <appender-ref ref="FILE" />

       <root level="DEBUG">
          <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
          <appender-ref ref="FILE" />
       </root>

4. Save the file.
