Pipeline logs help you prove what ran, debug failures, and satisfy audit requests without logging into every warehouse or agent host. The Logging tab in organization settings defines defaults for verbosity, how long logs stay available, and whether you stream structured logs to external systems.

Log levels

You assign a default log level for new pipelines and can override it per pipeline or per environment where your plan allows.
Records failures and aborted steps only. Use for high-volume production jobs where you already capture metrics elsewhere.
Debug-level logs may include query fragments, file paths, or parameter names. Treat them as sensitive and restrict who can view exported bundles.

Retention settings

Retention controls how long Planasonix keeps log records in the product UI and search APIs before automatic purge.
  • Hot retention – fast lookup in run details and the log viewer; typically shorter and capped by tier.
  • Archive retention (where available) – cheaper storage for compliance; retrieval may be asynchronous.
You can set different defaults for production and non-production workspaces if your organization uses environment tags.
Align retention with your internal log policy: if security requires 400 days of evidence, set Planasonix retention to match or exceed the minimum you need before relying on external SIEM copies.

Log viewer

Open any pipeline run and use the Logs panel to:
  • Filter by node, severity, and time range
  • Search free text across message bodies (subject to retention)
  • Follow live logs for in-progress runs
The viewer correlates messages with run attempt and retry indices so you can tell first-failure noise from a successful retry.

Enhanced logging

Enhanced logging (when enabled for your workspace) attaches structured fields such as connection id, job id, shard, and checkpoint offset where the engine exposes them. You use these fields in external log pipelines without scraping unstructured text.
Enhanced logging increases per-event size. If you export to a third-party system, confirm daily ingest limits and sampling rules on that side.

Log export

Configure log streaming or batch export to send copies to:
  • HTTPS endpoints (often a collector or SIEM HTTP API)
  • Object storage buckets for long-term archive
  • Syslog-compatible receivers (organization-dependent)
Exports respect redaction rules you define for known secret patterns (tokens, connection strings) so downstream systems do not store raw credentials.
Turning on export does not retroactively backfill historical logs. Plan a one-time archive job if you need logs that predate the integration.

Diagnostics

Deep dives into run health beyond raw log lines.

Alerts

Notify the team when error rates or log patterns spike.
