Enabling API Connect Gateway Service Logs in DataPower

This document provides instructions for enabling API Connect Gateway Service logs in DataPower. It describes logging into the DataPower CLI or web UI, navigating to the domain containing the API Connect Gateway Service, and configuring a file-based log target called "gwd-log" to store debug logs for the "apic-gw-service" event. Viewing the logs involves checking the "logtemp:///gwd-log" file location.

DataPower is the gateway/runtime for API Connect. In order for API Connect to synchronise APIs with the Gateway it uses a new

needs to be enabled.

Viewing the log

If you follow the steps below or you are using DataPower by deployed by APICUP the log file will be available in logtemp:///gwd-
