The log files are those that has all the details of the running status of the bots. Any
activity that is executed through the runner is printed in the logs. The logs tab in
the runner has only the execution log printed in it. To see the product log, activity
log and the runner log, navigate to the appdata folder.
The logs in the runner can be turned on or off using the toggle key.
When it is turned on, we can see the execution log printed in the logs screen of the
runner. When it is turned off, the execution log is not printed in the logs screen
of the runner.

Log Type
There are two log types that we can choose from. The activity log and
the product log.
Activity log: The activity log, shows the list of activities used in the
workflow along with the execution state in its log.
Product log: The product log is nothing but the runner log, which shows
the log details of runner and if there is any error in the application. The
execution log is seen by default in the app which can be turned on or off.

Any execution that is done will be printed in the logs. What we will see in the
output panel or the execution log, is
• Execution started – Generated every time a workflow starts execution
• Execution start time – Generates the exact time when the execution started.

• Execution end time – Generates the exact time when the execution ended.
• Total execution duration – Generates the total execution duration of the workflow.
The execution log and the output panel will show the log level, message and
timestamp. To see the detailed log file based on the log level chosen, we need
to navigate to the log files inside app data where we can view what is printed in
the log file based on the log level chosen.
