Ability to Log Diagnostic Messages

Hi Folks,
I would like an action added to the Rules Editor that simply allows you to log a diagnostic message.

I am currently doing this by setting the value of a text variable called txtLogMessage but having something native would be nice.

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing the idea! Can you clarify what functional problem this is solving that isn’t already covered by the native logging system?

Sure,
For rules that have multiple nested IF/THEN conditions, following the log can be a chore.

The log does say in a generic manner “IF condition met/not met, etc.” however finding the actual step in your rule can be a challenge.

An alternative to creating a log ‘action’ would be to have a way to ‘name’ a step and when the log entry is posted include the step name (if defined).

Thank you
