Magento log viewer extension is a powerful yet simple instrument to keep a close eye on your Magento online store condition. It allows you to have quick access to extensive grids with log errors and reports, including all the details and various options to manage and export the data. Besides basic managing options, the features of Log Monitoring extension include shared access to data for the store administrators, and email notifications for any time an error occurs.

With the var/log and var/report Grids, you have Magento errors under your eyes without turning to the server. Email notifications won’t leave you unaware about emergency and suspicious situations, and well-timed error fixing will benefit your store performance and stability. Having all the info about any error provided, it is much easier to know where it came from and how it can be fixed. Stop losing time and missing errors. Make your work smooth and well- organized with Log Monitoring and Notification.

Log Monitoring allows you to be involved with logs and reports at your own pace. Whether you want to hunt down a single error or see the whole picture, there is an option for you. In the General Settings, there is ‘Select var/log Error Level to Fetch var/log Data’ container, in which you can select the error types to be fetched and documented in your Grids. You can choose as many levels as you want, both one or many. You can view the details for every log and report directly in the grids, but don’t forget to save your choice in Configuration.

You can customize email notifications and make it match your team and your requirements. Flexible Email Settings allow you to enable automatic notifications, add scheduled emails and set suitable time limits if there is such a need. The notifications are your helping hand when anything happens and you don’t have time on a daily basis to inspect updates in the Grids. If there is anything worth your attention, you can receive the information directly to your email.

• Who will get the notifications

  You can set up a collective watch over log errors. If your store has a team of administrators, you can assign multiple notification recipients and manage them in one click. You can assign the notification to any user or any email, or remove the no longer needed recipients anytime.With custom email settings you enjoy timely and neat emails that contain the most extended information on the matter.

• When you want to get the repeated notifications

  Sometimes, an error can go missing in your inbox or nothing has been done about it since it occurred. In this case, a repeated email will come within a short period of time that you can set. There is a default value of seven days, so there are weekly reminders about unattended errors.

• What the notifications should contain

  As well as for the Grid settings, you can determine which events will land in your inbox. A useful tip: you can skip levels from debug to notice because they won’t bring you anything urgent.

• Define how often the data from var/report folder is fetched.

  You can adapt this number to how frequently errors are happening in your store. The more often the Grid is updated, the faster you can see that something is off and fix it.

  
  
  
• Assign time and frequency for managing content in var/report and var/log folders.

  You can flush all the contents of both database tables and therefore, the Grids. It helps to keep the Grids clean and organized and save your time while browsing it in order to find new errors.

• Set the time limit for var/log data to be archived.

  You can enable this feature in case you want the files to stay archived on the server after the table was cleaned. It can be helpful if you are not sure if you need these files later for your reference, comparison or reports.

  
  
  
• Choose whether the files in var/report folders should be deleted instantly

  After the table was cleaned from logs, you no longer need the report files you are familiar with so you can clean them out.

• Sort the records by properties in each Grid, in case you search for a particular record from a particular day or type.
  
  
• Delete items you don’t need anymore manually. In the Actions list, you can find a feature for removing items from the Grid. It takes selecting all or some records and specifying the action in the drop-down list.
  
  
• Export both log errors and reports to CSV or Excel XML file Before deleting files from the Grid, you can download any quantity of records to your computer using the export button.

• Update data in reports grid. You can use the Synchronize button if you need your reports updated immediately.
  
  
• Send instant email notifications. Advanced settings allow you to keep any admin user informed by customized email notification you can send right from the grids. In case you need to highlight certain log files or report records, which are not mentioned in the automatic notifications, you can create your own notification for yourself or your whole team. You can do so by marking some or all records and selecting the appropriate actions.
