Logging

FoxIDs default log errors and events including the time and the client IP address.

The two supported log options Settings__Options:Log is:

• Stdout which logs to the console output. This log options are used for Deploy / Kubernetes (k8s) deployment.
• ApplicationInsights which sends logs to Application Insights and the logs can subsequently be view in FoxIDs Control.

The log settings and log stream are available for both log options.

Application Insights

The logs are sent to Application Insights which is part of the FoxIDs cloud deployment.

Usage

FoxIDs usage can be searched in FoxIDs Control Client and API.

• If you look at the usage in a particular environment, the usage of that selected environment is shown.
• If you instead look at the usage in the master environment it will show the usage for the entire tenant, which can be limited to a particular environment.
• Likewise, the master tenant master environment shows usage for the entire cloud installation of FoxIDs, which can be limited to a particular tenant and environment.

This screen dump shows the usage view in a environment.
