Debug Log

Description

Use the step to log the process or workflow variables and fields in AE agent log that is agent.log file if process or workflow is running from AutomationEdge. Or, if process or workflow is running from Process studio, the process or workflow variables and fields will log in Process Studio log that is process-studio.log file

Note:

If you run the workflow through AE UI version 8.0 or earlier, the step writes logs to the Agent log files. In version 8.1 and later, the step writes logs to the Request log files.
