Define Log Objects

Before integrating the API into a new project you need to define a log object and subobjects in transaction SLG0.

Please refer to the best practices in order to get that right (see: Functional Documentation -> Best Practices -> Log based on use cases).

Customize your project

The bare minimum that needs to be customized for every application is the product specific log level (see: Customizing -> Log Levels -> Product specific Log Level). It is recommended to log only temporary errors by default (see: Functional Documentation -> Best Practices -> Only log temporary errors by default).

You might also want to check, if the default retention times are feasible for your development (see: Customizing -> Log Levels -> Retention Time).

The log-level specific data-container-customizing is normally kept 'as is', but feel free to check that anyway (see: Customizing -> Log Levels -> Relevant Data Containers).
