Question

How do I retrieve or download Appspace App device logs when requested by Appspace Customer Support?

Answer

We recommend customers first set the log level on the device to debug, before deploying the Retrieve Log advanced device task to retrieve the Appspace App device logs. Once the Appspace App device logs have been retrieved, customers may proceed to download the Appspace App device log (logreports.json) and send it to Appspace Customer Support.

Please follow the instructions below if you’d like to know how to do this.
