Logs combines Dynomate operation records with AWS call activity for the active context. Use it to inspect parameters, timing, retries, and failures.

Open Logs

  • Select the Logs icon in the toolstrip. Logs opens at the bottom on most tabs and on the right on the Table Discovery tab.
  • Use Dock to right or Dock to bottom to move it.
  • Drag the divider to resize the dock.
  • Select the close button in the dock header to collapse the dock.

By default, an Amazon Aurora DSQL table tab opens with Logs at the bottom. In an Aurora DSQL console, open Logs from the toolstrip.

Activity coverage

Logs includes these operation groups:

  • DynamoDB Query, Scan, Put, Update, Delete, and BatchWrite activity.
  • Athena discovery, query, result, and cancellation calls.
  • Local DuckDB SQL completion and failure records.
  • Aurora DSQL SQL activity: console runs with the SQL as sent, table page loads, applied changes and connection test checks.
  • Aurora DSQL connection attempts, and the ListClusters, GetCluster, GetVpcEndpointServiceName and DescribeVpcEndpoints calls.
  • STS, SSO, and SSO OIDC authentication calls, and AWS Login sign-in steps.

Expand a row to inspect request context, duration, attempts, page summaries, results, AWS error details, and a sanitized activity record.

Scope and filter

  • A DynamoDB table tab shows activity for that table and related AWS calls.
  • An Athena tab shows activity for its Athena table source.
  • A local SQL tab shows activity for its snapshot source.
  • An Aurora DSQL tab shows the SQL activity of its connection, from all tabs that use the connection.
  • Table Discovery settings shows activity for the active settings tab.
  • Other tabs can show broader activity when no resource filter applies.

Use the filter field to search operation names, resource identifiers, SQL, parameters, AWS errors, profiles, Regions, and request IDs.

AWS activity and retries

AWS rows show service, operation, phase, profile, Region, resource, duration, attempt count, and available result or error summaries. A failed call can include the AWS error code, HTTP status, and request ID.

  • A DynamoDB Query can show Run when its parameters are available and the matching table tab is active.
  • An Athena or local SQL query can show Run when the matching source tab is active and no query is running or cancelling.
  • Scan, write, and delete rows do not have a retry action.
  • Aurora DSQL SQL rows do not have Run. A second run on the same session can repeat a write.

Check the active profile, resource, and query text before you run a logged operation again.

Copy and download

  • The row copy action copies SQL, DynamoDB parameters, or a sanitized activity record.
  • Download Activity saves the currently visible rows as a JSON file.
  • The menu can show or hide timestamps before a download.

Clear and retention

Clear and Clear Activity remove completed activity in the current scope. Queued and running AWS calls remain until they finish.

  • AWS call history keeps up to 500 completed calls globally.
  • It keeps up to 200 completed calls per tab and 200 per flow.
  • Active AWS calls remain even when a retention limit is reached.
  • Dynomate operation logs remain in memory for the current app session.
