Check the last topic on the page.

We are using splunk for this. Refer docs.splunk.com/.../SyslogTCP for more info

@vinodb, By looking at the screen shot, you would get the access in the Home page if the server is a cloud setup by Appian Team. If it is a local installation, I don't think you would get access there.

How ever, you have a plugin to get the Logs into the Records. Have a look at it:

Vinod -

If your environment is in Appian Cloud, I suggest exploring Log Streaming as an option for your use case: docs.appian.com/.../Log_Streaming_for_Appian_Cloud.html

You can configure your Appian Cloud site to ship logs to a syslog server in your network and configure your Splunk installation to monitor to these files. docs.splunk.com/.../Monitornetworkports

Hope this helps,
