To write the System log files in the form of a table in the database, I tried to connect the "Reader Log" plug-in from Appian App Market
But here I'm not sure how to proceed further.
Does it contain any Documentation?

Proceed from where? Have you successfully deployed the plugin?
Use the functions available in plugin like readcsvlog() to read the log files and store the result in a CDT and then use Write to DSE for storing them to DB.
I downloaded the Plug-in from the Appian app market.
Admin Console > plug-ins > Add plug-ins > Log Reader > Deploy
This is the process followed for deploying the plug-ins. But this is not deployed. The smart service plug-ins are not getting depicted in the process model.
This plugin do not have any smart services, it only has functions that can be used in expressions, you can use them in script task in a process.
" Expression evaluation error at a function a!readcsvlog: The function a!readcsvlog is unavailable."
The function a!readcsvlog() displays the above error.
You don't need the a!
Just readcsvlog.
Thanks a lot. It's working great and it can read Log and CSV files.
read log("download-stats.log") This returns only the download-stats data
Is there any way I can get all the log files in the Appian log system instead of a name-specific one (above)?
Don't think so, but you can just create a list with the different types of log files that are available and loop through that.
