Write Custom Logging Message

Custom logging messages can be sent to the logging database from a Workflow. This is useful for when you require further information about an event than what is provided in the default log messages.

1. Create or edit an existing Workflow.
2. Add an Action block to the Workflow.
3. Double-click the Action block to open the Action Browser.
4. In the Objects pane, click Logging.
   
5. In the Commands pane, click Write to Activity Log.
   
6. In the Expression pane, select each parameter and fill in the desired value.
   1. In the Command or Status parameter, select whether this logging message is for a Command or Status.
   2. In the Action parameter, fill in the occurring Action. For example, the Mask command being executed on an asset.
   3. In the Location parameter, fill in where the event is occurring. This is typically a caption or logging description.
   4. In the Type parameter, fill in the type of item this entry is describing. For example, the asset type.
