Multi-line logs such as stack traces give you lots of very valuable information for debugging and troubleshooting application problems. But, as anyone who has tried knows, it can be a challenge to collect stack traces and other multi-line logs so that you can easily parse, search, and use them to identify problems. This is because, without proper configuration, log management services and tools do not treat multi-line logs as a single event.

If you’re a LogicMonitor customer, the platform’s Audit Logs may seem like a rudimentary means to track user actions, but they can actually be a powerful tool for troubleshooting and getting historical data within your portal.
