Viewing the SharePoint Logs in Jive

Viewing Jive Logs

You may need to view the Jive logs or provide them to Support for troubleshooting. Use the following steps to collect a debug log and retrieve it in Jive.
  1. In the Admin Console, go to System > Management > Logging Management
  2. In the Configuration tab add a logging level override with the name com.jivesoftware.spintegration and the level DEBUG. This setting ensures that debug logs will be collected.
  3. Reproduce the problem you're troubleshooting so the log will reflect it.
  4. Return to System > Management > Logging Management and select the Log Viewer tab.
