Events UI

Connexion stores event information in three locations depending on the severity:

All events are logged to either the Connexion.txt or Connexion.user.txt files. Events fired by custom devices (plugins) are routed to the Connexion.user.txt file, which is excluded from all reporting and transmission in case any PI is accidentally logged there.
Events with a severity of Info or above are stored in the database (Trace and Debug are excluded).
Error and Fatal events are logged to the Windows Application event log.

The events UI primarily provides access to events stored in the database, but also provides a viewer for log files.

View raw logs by clicking the Log Viewer button and then choosing the file to view in the Source drop-down.

If the management UI is running on the same machine as the Connexion service, you can also view the contents of the log directories by clicking the Log Folder button.

Events stored in the database can be queried, filtered, exported, and purged. Purging events requires specific permissions, and should be done with care.

Individual events can be deleted by selecting events in the table and pressing the Delete key (or right-click context menu)

Events can be programmatically inspected and integrated with other enterprise stacks in the Events tab.

This same events UI is also available at the channel and device level. Launching a device viewer from the channel or device event icons will automatically set the filtering to show only the appropriate events.

Click on the device or channel event counts to view pre-filtered events
