Overview
This article clarifies if the Real-time Webtask Logs extension can be available to developers without granting the Tenant Admin role. It also clarifies if there is an alternative tool to monitor the execution of the Actions.
Applies To
- Real-time Webtask Logs extension
- Actions
Solution
The extensions, including the real-time web task log extension, are only accessible by full admins. Other roles cannot access them.
The tenant logs contain some details about the Actions. For example, if an Action fails, accessing the tenant logs may give some visibility into which Action caused the execution to terminate. Here is one sample log.
However, the log streams do not transfer Action-related details, so the tenant admins need elevated access to check them directly from the dashboard. See Log Streams for more details.
The Viewer-Users role is the less privileged access type that can see the logs. However, this role can only see the logs for user events. For example, if there were some updates to tenant configuration, those events generate the “sapi” type logs, and this user access level doesn’t allow seeing those logs, which may be critical during an investigation. See Log Event Type Codes.
