Configuring Advanced Logging
Shinydrive includes a variety of logging capabilities to assist with advanced troubleshooting. Enabling and configuring logging is done per Profile in Shinydrive Admin.
Configuring Logging (Shinydrive 2.5.1 and later)
By default basic Shinydrive logging is enabled.
Shinydrive may generate a large amount of logs from any of the advanced logging options. It is recommended that these options only be enabled for a short period of time.
Log into Shinydrive Admin
Select the DRIVES & PROFILES menu item
In the PROFILES section, select a profile
Click the Advanced Settings link
Scroll down to locate the Logging section
Check one or more of the options in Advanced Logging
Scroll down to the bottom of Advanced Settings and click the Done button
Click the Save button for the profile
To start generating the additional logging, disconnect and then reconnect to the Shinydrive Client
