Alteryx Logs date format

Hi,

 

Can the Log format be changed, so that each line starts with 

MM-DD-YYYY hh:mm:ss TZ.

 

This is to allow log monitoring applications to process the file correctly.

 

Thanks

 

Mike

Agree with the desire to format the log files consistently @mpoptum; and add in the full time zone plus the TZ (timezone Zulu) designation.

 

However - we should avoid mm-dd-yyyy formats because they are a big source of error because Americans will interpret them as MM-DD and commonwealth countries & UK will interpret them as DD-MM.

 

Best format is the logical format, start from biggest unit to smallest unit

YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS TZ
