Logging With API

Loggers can be directly integrated into your application using our API. This requires the most effort compared with the options described above, but also offers the greatest flexibility and control.

Protecting User Privacy

Loggers always have an active set of Logging rules documentation that control what data is logged and how sensitive data is masked. All of the examples above apply a predefined set of rules (include strict), but logging rules are easily customized to meet the needs of any application.
