# Log (*Log*) ## Overview Submit logs to the Log Handler for Plex Media Server ### Available Operations * [LogLine](#logline) - Logging a single line message. * [LogMultiLine](#logmultiline) - Logging a multi-line message * [EnablePaperTrail](#enablepapertrail) - Enabling Papertrail ## LogLine This endpoint will write a single-line log message, including a level and source to the main Plex Media Server log. ### Example Usage ```csharp using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Requests; var sdk = new PlexAPI(accessToken: ""); var res = await sdk.Log.LogLineAsync( level: Level.Three, message: "Test log message", source: "Postman" ); // handle response ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | Example | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Level` | [Level](../../Models/Requests/Level.md) | :heavy_check_mark: | An integer log level to write to the PMS log with.
0: Error
1: Warning
2: Info
3: Debug
4: Verbose
| | | `Message` | *string* | :heavy_check_mark: | The text of the message to write to the log. | Test log message | | `Source` | *string* | :heavy_check_mark: | a string indicating the source of the message. | Postman | ### Response **[LogLineResponse](../../Models/Requests/LogLineResponse.md)** ### Errors | Error Type | Status Code | Content Type | | ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.LogLineBadRequest | 400 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.LogLineUnauthorized | 401 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.SDKException | 4XX, 5XX | \*/\* | ## LogMultiLine This endpoint allows for the batch addition of log entries to the main Plex Media Server log. It accepts a text/plain request body, where each line represents a distinct log entry. Each log entry consists of URL-encoded key-value pairs, specifying log attributes such as 'level', 'message', and 'source'. Log entries are separated by a newline character (`\n`). Each entry's parameters should be URL-encoded to ensure accurate parsing and handling of special characters. This method is efficient for logging multiple entries in a single API call, reducing the overhead of multiple individual requests. The 'level' parameter specifies the log entry's severity or importance, with the following integer values: - `0`: Error - Critical issues that require immediate attention. - `1`: Warning - Important events that are not critical but may indicate potential issues. - `2`: Info - General informational messages about system operation. - `3`: Debug - Detailed information useful for debugging purposes. - `4`: Verbose - Highly detailed diagnostic information for in-depth analysis. The 'message' parameter contains the log text, and 'source' identifies the log message's origin (e.g., an application name or module). Example of a single log entry format: `level=4&message=Sample%20log%20entry&source=applicationName` Ensure each parameter is properly URL-encoded to avoid interpretation issues. ### Example Usage ```csharp using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components; var sdk = new PlexAPI(accessToken: ""); string req = @"level=4&message=Test%20message%201&source=postman level=3&message=Test%20message%202&source=postman level=1&message=Test%20message%203&source=postman"; var res = await sdk.Log.LogMultiLineAsync(req); // handle response ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | | `request` | *string* | :heavy_check_mark: | The request object to use for the request. | ### Response **[LogMultiLineResponse](../../Models/Requests/LogMultiLineResponse.md)** ### Errors | Error Type | Status Code | Content Type | | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.LogMultiLineBadRequest | 400 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.LogMultiLineUnauthorized | 401 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.SDKException | 4XX, 5XX | \*/\* | ## EnablePaperTrail This endpoint will enable all Plex Media Serverlogs to be sent to the Papertrail networked logging site for a period of time. ### Example Usage ```csharp using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components; var sdk = new PlexAPI(accessToken: ""); var res = await sdk.Log.EnablePaperTrailAsync(); // handle response ``` ### Response **[EnablePaperTrailResponse](../../Models/Requests/EnablePaperTrailResponse.md)** ### Errors | Error Type | Status Code | Content Type | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.EnablePaperTrailBadRequest | 400 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.EnablePaperTrailUnauthorized | 401 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.SDKException | 4XX, 5XX | \*/\* |
