Understanding the System Logs

The Data Service, similarly the other microservices outputs logs to different destinations depending on its log configuration. By enabling this property, a log with Info level will be emitted on every data modification.

To activate these system logs the following property needs to be set to true in the data-service-extension configuration file (namely application.yml).

Setting the enable property to true, will activate the logs.
Setting the verbose property to true, will also log the modification details. This property has no effect if enabled is false
Setting the anonymous property to true, will log the modifications without user details. This property has no effect if enable is false. Note that setting this property to false will perform some nominative (username, user-id) records they may require some legal agreements.
