Log API Requests

Check this option to generate DEBUG log entries for each request from Events2HVAC to the SmartBuildings system.  This is primarily used temporarily for troubleshooting.  The logger must be logging DEBUG events for this data to show up in the log files.

Log API Responses

Check this option to generate DEBUG log entries for each response from the SmartBuildings system.  This is primarily used temporarily for troubleshooting.  The logger must be logging DEBUG events for this data to show up in the log files.

Note:  Make sure you turn this feature off after troubleshooting so that the response files don’t fill up your hard drive.
