# View Logs

The Logs page in the Monitor menu displays the Request log (see Request Log) and any other log streams that are enabled. For more information about the available log streams, see the IDOL Server Administration Guide.

The `GetLogStream` action returns these log streams. For information about this action, see the IDOL Server Reference.

To select a log stream to display

- Click the relevant tab.

  If there is more than one log file available for that log stream, a list displays the options.

When you select a log stream, it is generated in the user interface.

To update the log stream at any point

- Click Refresh. You can also enable Autorefresh by selecting a refresh interval in the Refresh every [number] seconds list. If Autorefresh is enabled, only the latest log entries are visible.

NOTE: You can refresh only the current log file for each log stream. If you are viewing a previous log file (the log name is appended with a date), then the refresh options are unavailable.

To search within the displayed log stream

- Type a search term into the box in the top-right corner of the page.

  If the term appears in the log stream, the search box turns green and the instances in the text are highlighted. The log stream automatically scrolls to the first instance. If there are no results for the term, the search box turns red.

Warning or error entries in the log streams are written in orange text. The number of warning and error messages in a log stream is displayed beside its tab name. Hover over the number to open either a Warnings in [logstream] window or an Errors in [logstream] window, containing links to the relevant entries in the log stream.
