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.
