Example Structured Log

{
  "timestamp": "2026-09-27T10:30:45.000Z",
  "level": "ERROR",
  "service": "user-service",
  "environment": "production",
  "message": "Failed to fetch user profile",
  "requestId": "req_7f8a92",
  "userId": "user_12345",
  "endpoint": "/api/users/profile",
  "method": "GET",
  "statusCode": 500,
  "durationMs": 245
}

Benefits of Structured Logging

Easier Log Searching

JSON fields make it easier for logging systems to search and filter application events.

Better Debugging

Request IDs, user IDs, status codes, and other context can be stored together with the message.

Machine Readable

Structured JSON can be processed by log aggregation and observability systems.

Consistent Format

A consistent schema makes application logs easier to understand and analyze.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is structured logging?

Structured logging stores log events using consistent fields and machine-readable formats such as JSON instead of relying only on plain text messages.

Why use JSON logs?

JSON makes individual fields easier for applications, monitoring systems, and log aggregation tools to parse, search, and filter.

Can I add custom fields?

Yes. Use the Additional Metadata field to add custom JSON properties such as endpoint, statusCode, duration, region, or any other useful context.

Is this tool connected to a backend?

No. The JSON log is generated directly in your browser. No server-side processing is required.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add custom fields?

Yes. Enter a JSON object in Metadata to include additional fields in the generated log.
