To analyze a log in Live Tail, click Pause to stop the streaming display. Scroll to a log and click the options icon on the far right of the log row, and select View Details. A details panel opens on the right where you can view the Log Line Details tab or the Parser Details tab.

The Log Line Details tab includes a Field Extraction and Enrichment Summary along with the raw log data. You can analyze the information to help troubleshoot the parser that processed the selected log.

Tip

Next to any field that contains enriched data, an enrichment indicator icon is displayed (for example: ). Note that the list of extracted fields contains both the source field and the enriched field. Click the enrichment indicator icon next to the enriched field to display an enriched field tooltip. The tooltip explains the type and source of the enriched data.

The Parser Details tab includes information about the parser that processed the selected log. It includes the parser name, calibration tier, and a list of the CDI fields that have been parsed.

If you want to customize the default parser from which this Live Tail view is built, click Customize parser. The Extract Fields section of the Customize Parser page displays, loaded with the log line you were just viewing. See Customize a Default Parser for more information.
