Using Amazon CloudWatch Logs

You can configure your SiteWise Edge gateway to send logs to CloudWatch Logs. For more information, see Enable logging for CloudWatch Logs in the Amazon IoT Greengrass Version 2 Developer Guide.

To configure and access CloudWatch Logs (Console)

  1. Navigate to the CloudWatch console.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Log groups.

  3. You can find the Amazon IoT SiteWise component logs in the following log groups:

    • /aws/greengrass/UserComponent/region/aws.iot.SiteWiseEdgeCollectorOpcua – The logs for the SiteWise Edge gateway's component that collects data from the SiteWise Edge gateway's OPC-UA sources.

    • /aws/greengrass/UserComponent/region/aws.iot.SiteWiseEdgePublisher – The logs for the SiteWise Edge gateway's component that publishes OPC-UA data streams to Amazon IoT SiteWise.

    Choose the log group for the function to debug.

  4. Choose a log stream that has a name that ends with the name of your Amazon IoT Greengrass group. By default, CloudWatch displays the most recent log stream first.
