Difference between Orchestrator Logs & System Logs

Description

Hi There,
Can someone help me with the below queries on logs.
1.Diff between system logs and orchestrator logs.
2.From where does the system logs are being generated ? Is it from the code ? Does this logs really need ?(C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Local\UiPath\Logs)
3.How to stop / control the logs being generated in the system ?

We are facing a space issue in the server for one of the process and able to see these system logs are consuming the space a lot.
Kindly suggest.

Thanks

The system logs generated would be pused to orchestrator

Also in system logs you would see logs at studio level also which are used for analysis and not shared in orchestrator

Its. Ot like orch logs are generated directly..a set of system logs are sent to orchestrator in one go via robot service

You can delete old logs to clear but new would still be generated

Cheers

Hi @avinashy

  1. system logs are local logs stored on the machine, while Orchestrator logs are centralized and shown in Orchestrator.

  2. system logs are generated by UiPath Robot/Studio, not directly from your code, and are useful but not mandatory if Orchestrator logs are being used.

  3. You can’t fully stop system logs, but you can reduce them by setting the logging level to Error or Off.

@avinashy

System logs (Robot logs) are automatically generated by the UiPath Robot for local diagnostics and are distinct from Orchestrator logs, which are aggregated and managed centrally on the Orchestrator server. To manage disk space issues, you can adjust log levels like Warning, Error, Fatal etc., enforce a proper retention/rotation policy, or schedule regular clean-ups while preserving essential diagnostic information.

System logs are local to the machine and useful for debugging, while Orchestrator logs are centralized and remotely accessible, making them ideal for monitoring. Although system logs can be reduced or cleaned, they cannot be completely disabled. The most effective way to minimize unnecessary log generation is by adjusting the logging level.

@prashant1603765 Can you tell me where to set the logging level to Error or Off.

Provide me the path / screenshot for reference.

Can you please provide more details including path to adjust the logging level.

I think you can find the path from below points:

  • %ProgramData%\UiPath\UiPath.settings (for Robots)
  • %localappdata%\UiPath\UiPath.settings (for attended robots or Studio)
