While instrumenting python framework, where to view the debug logs. example: In transport/http.py: there is a call as given below: `logger.debug("Sent request, url=%s size=%.2fkb status=%s", url, len(data) / 1024.0, response.status)` Where to see this kind of log, and what are the steps to enable if not enabled by default ---

I assume you're talking about the Elastic APM Python Agent since you're talking about instrumenting. You need to enable debug-level logging. [See the agent docs on logging config for instructions on that.](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/python/current/troubleshooting.html#agent-logging) EDIT: I've moved your topic to the APM section of the forum from the Elasticsearch section - in case you search for it. ---

Where is it adding that? Could you post an example message or screenshot of what you mean? ---

in settings.py we have to put below dictionary: LOGGING = { 'handlers': { 'console': { 'level': 'DEBUG', 'class': 'logging.StreamHandler' } }, 'loggers': { 'elasticapm': { 'level': 'DEBUG', 'handlers': ['console'] }, }, **'version': 1,** } ---
