Log formats

Transparent Edge makes its website logs available to customers. This can work in two different ways:

1. (PULL): The customer can download the logs from an FTP set up for that purpose.

2. (PUSH): Transparent Edge can send the logs every hour to an FTP that the customer makes available to us for that purpose.

This service is not enabled by default. If you’d like to enable it, follow the instructions here.
