Log access via HTTP

The server provides access to various metadata and logging information via HTTP.
The following examples use the following URL http://localhost:8065/.

Listing of all defined extractions

The following URL

http://localhost:8065/

lists the defined extraction.

The log contains the following columns:

• Name: contains the name of the extraction.
• Type: contains the extraction type.
• Source: contains the name of the source connection.
• Destination: contains the name of the target connection.
• LastRun: contains the time stamp of the last execution.
• RowCount: contains the number of last extracted data records.
• LastChange: contains the time stamp of the last change.
• Created: contains the timestamp of the creation.

List of all defined target connections

The following URL

http://localhost:8065/destinations

lists the defined target connections.

Name,Type,Host,Port,Database,User,Schema,Directory
alteryx,Alteryx,,,,,,
http-csv,CSV,,,,,,
http-odata-atom,ODataAtom,,,,,
sqlserver,SQLServer,localhost,1433,SAPDemos,test,,

The log contains the following columns:

• Name: contains the name of the target connection.
• Type: contains the connection type.
• Host: contains the host name, if applicable.
• Port: contains the port name, if applicable.
• Database: contains the database name, if applicable.
• User: contains the user name in the connection, if applicable.
• Schema: contains the schema name, if applicable.
• Directory: contains the directory name, if applicable.

Name of the result table/file for a specific timestamp

Under

http://localhost:8065/ResultName?name=kna1&timestamp=2016-08-04_15:17:02.025

there is the name of the result table/file for a specific timestamp (this only works if the destination/extraction-specific settings have not been changed since the run)

Serverlog

The server creates a separate log for each day with the corresponding timestamp. You can access the list of the server logs with the following parameter req_type=server:

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=server&timestamp

Server log of a specified timestamp

You can access the server log of a specified timestamp (e.g. 2010-04-28_00:00:00.000) with the following parameters req_type=server & timestamp=2010-04-28_00:00:00.000 :

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=server&timestamp=2010-04-28_00:00:00.000

You can use the shortdate format instead of the timestamp format:

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=server&timestamp=2010-04-28

Log of a specified extraction

You can access the log of a specified extraction (e.g. vardemo) with the following parameters: req_type=extraction&name=vardemo

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=extraction&name=vardemo

Log of a specified extraction at a specified timespamp

You can access the server log of a specified timestamp (e.g. 2010-04-28_00:00:00.000) with the following parameters req_type=extraction&name=vardemo & timestamp=2010-04-27_10:24:47.674 :

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=extraction&name=vardemo&timestamp=2010-04-27_10:24:47.674

All logs

You can access the list of all logs with the following parameter req_type=all:

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=all

All logs since n days

You can access all logs since n days with the following parameters req_type=all&past_days=n:

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=all&past_days=1

All logs since a specified timestamp

You can access all logs since a specified timestamp with the following parameters req_type=all&min=2010-04-28_09:49:17.831:

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=all&min=2010-04-28_09:49:17.831

You can use a short date instead of a min timestamp.

All logs until a specified timestamp

You can access all logs until a specified timestamp with the following parameters req_type=all&min=2010-04-28_09:49:17.831:

http://localhost:8065/log/?req_type=all&max=2010-04-28_09:49:17.831

You can use a short date instead of a min timestamp. All logs between two specified timestamps

Use both parameters min and max to access all logs between two specified timestamps.

Log content

The log output contains the following columns:

LineCount: contains the row number.
Name: contains the name of the extraction or the server name in case of a server log.
Timestamp: contains the timestamp.
State: contains a number between 2 and 4 for a server extraction or the number 5 for a server log.
StateDescr: contains the state description.

• LogLevel: has one of the following values Error, Info or Debug and describes the log type.
• Source: is the technical name of the component that generates the log info.
• Mode: has the value console or service.
• Message: is the log content.
