Exporting log from workflow ran on alteryx server

Hi,

Is it possible to export the workflow log of a chained app on alteryx server?

It's not possible to export a log directly from a run, but I'm sure it's there in the MongoDB!

@alexnajm is there anyway to get the log? from the workflow itself?

It sounds like you want to have something like a button to "Export" which is not available - but for any workflow run you do on Server you can go to Workflow Results and expand the messages to see the log! Otherwise the log info is stored in the MongoDB.

There's also a way for Alteryx to output a log directly to a location from Designer in User Settings, but this doesn't sound like the path you want to go down.
