Introduction

ElectroNeek Bot Runner features automated logging. The autolog file is the main and the most important source of information that you can receive and send to the Support Team in order to solve a certain issue. 

It contains all the information in regard to your machine specifications, the version of both Bot Runner and its components, and every step of the workflow as well. Thus, it is the most detailed log file created automatically. 

There is a certain structure of the file:

  1. Environment information (OS version, components versions, etc.)
  2. Information describing every step of the bot. The start and end steps of the bot execution are also recorded. 

The information is displayed as: “Time of log-message - JSON”, for example:

16:26:46.328 {"programs":[{"program":"InternetExplorer","version":"11.789.19041.0"},

{"program":"Chrome","version":"91.0.4472.124"},

{"program":"1C"},{"program":"ElectroNeek Studio","version":"5.6.11.0"},

{"program":"ElectroNeek Robot","version":"5.6.11.0"},

{"program":"msedgedriver.exe","version":"79.0.313.0"}],"windows":{"caption":" Windows 10 Pro","version":"10.0.19042","csd_version":0,"os_architecture":"64-bit"},
