Log Monitor

ON THIS PAGE

Log Monitor

The Log Monitor loads and visualizes almost all available Qlik Sense log data. This gives you the possibility to discover trends and analyze and troubleshoot issues in your Qlik Sense environment. Compared to the Operations Monitor, the Log Monitor loads more log files, but for a shorter period of history (default seven days).

Note: For a more detailed description of the sheets and visualizations, visit the story About the Log Monitor that is available from the app overview page, under Stories.

For the location and naming convention of the log files, see Logging.

Importing the Log Monitor app to the Monitoring apps in the QMC

The Log Monitor is not available by default from the QMC. To make it available, you need to import the app.

Follow the instructions in the section Importing new Monitoring apps

Log Monitor sheets

The Log Monitor sheets display Qlik Sense performance on the current node, and, when properly configured for multi-node (as described in Configuring multi-node environments), the app includes information across all nodes.
