Explore Logs
Explore page provides a time machine view of your application logs segregated by its process.
The Explore page lists all the log streams generated across your IT environment that are being ingested into Apica Ascent. The Explore page lists and categorizes logs based on Namespace, Application, ProcID, and when they were last updated. By default, logs are listed by the time they were ingested with the most recent applications appearing on the top. You can filter log streams by namespaces, applications, and ProcIDs. You can also filter them by custom time ranges.
You can also click into a specific application or ProcID to view logs in more detail and to search through or identify patterns within your log data.
