Save import log

There are two ways you can save logs for automatic imports:

  • Save the log automatically in the source directory

    In the Settings workflow step, select the Store import log in the source directory check box to enable the automatic saving of logs in the source directory (see Specify import options).

    After each import, the log will be stored automatically in the source directory.

    The log is compressed during automatic saving and is available afterwards as a *.gz file.

    Log file size During an import, the system validates all the data records in the import file(s). When import files are of a particular size and contain a large number of data records with errors, the log files may become quite large and therefore require a lot of storage space.

  • Save the log manually in any directory in the Recipients or All recipients agent

Below is a step-by-step description of how to save the import log.
