Administrator Features

Administrators have access to four management views under the Activity Log section of the navigation menu. Together, these views cover the full lifecycle of log data: what to capture, how long to keep it, and how to expose it to users.

  • Activity Log — The raw log viewer. Displays all captured log entries with full filtering capabilities. Useful for real-time debugging and operational monitoring.

  • Extractors — Define which log entries the AppJar should capture and persist. An Extractor specifies matching criteria: time windows, log severity levels, logger name patterns, and message content patterns. Only logs that match an active Extractor are stored.

  • Removers — Define rules for automatically deleting log entries after a specified age. A Remover targets logs by the same criteria as Extractors (time, level, logger, detail), and adds an expiration window (e.g., delete logs older than 7 days).

  • Log Viewers — Create and manage the user-facing Log Viewer pages. Each Log Viewer is a configured view registered at a specific URL, with pre-set filters and column visibility options.

Free mode

When running without a license, once the daily free-mode log limit is reached the management views become read-only: the New button and per-row actions are disabled in the list views, and the Save button is disabled in the creation and edit forms. Existing data remains fully visible. Normal operation resumes when the daily counter resets. See Free mode for details.
