# View Logs

Plan provides writeback logging as soon as you start a writeback operation. You can review logs from **Logs** under the **Writeback** tab.

## 1. Filter writeback logs

#### 1. Search logs

Use the search bar to find logs by **ID**.

#### 2. Filter by status

Select **Status** to filter logs by the execution state of the writeback operation. You can filter by **Success**, **Failed**, **Running**, and **Cancelled**. Multiple statuses can be selected simultaneously.

* **Success** - If you select this option, the logs will be filtered to show only writeback processes that completed without errors.
* **Failed** - Selecting this option will filter the logs to display writeback processes that encountered an error and did not complete successfully.
* **Running** - This option will filter the logs to show writeback processes that are currently executing.
* **Cancelled** - If you select this option, the logs will display writeback processes that were explicitly stopped or aborted before completion.

#### 3. Filter by time

Select **Created At** to filter logs by when writeback started. You can filter by **Within the last**, **Last 7 days**, **Last 30 days**, and **Between**.

* **Within the last** - If you select this option, you can specify the number of hours, minutes, or seconds. The logs will be fetched if the writeback start time falls within this period.
* **Last 7 days** - Selecting this option will filter the logs within the last 7 days
* **Last 30 days** - This option will filter the logs that were created in the last 30 days.
* **Between** - If you select this option, then you can specify the starting and ending date within which you can filter your writeback logs.

## 2. Analyze writeback logs

The writeback logs console displays a list of log columns that help you identify and analyze each writeback.

#### **1. ID**

Displays the unique identifier for each writeback. You can sort this column in ascending or descending order. Selecting the **ID** opens a detailed summary of the writeback. The **General** tab includes the summary, and status.

<figure><img src="/files/cHDQZ8X2LW9uvuxaWgkk" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The details pane provides the following information:

* **Writeback Execution ID** - The unique system generated identifier for this specific writeback operation.
* **Event source** - The specific action or trigger that initiated the operation (e.g., Writeback).
* **Work Sheet Name** - The name of the report or worksheet from which the data originated.
* **Scenario Name** - The specific planning scenario associated with the data being written (e.g., Base).
* **Series/Measure** - The specific data points, calculations, or measures included in the writeback payload (e.g., Sum of Actuals, Sum of Plan).
* **Incoming Cell Count** - The total number of individual data cells passed from the source to the writeback engine.
* **Created At** - The exact date and timestamp when the writeback request was registered by the system.
* **Started At** - The exact date and timestamp when the processing engine began executing the request.
* **Status** - The overall outcome of the execution process (e.g., Success, Failed).
* **Duration** - The total time elapsed from the start to the completion of the writeback operation.
* **Writeback Filter** - The specific data filtering criteria applied to the payload before committing it to the destination (e.g., Calculated rows only).
* **Writeback Type** - The structural format used to write the data to the destination (e.g., Long).
* **Started By** - The user account that initiated the writeback process.
* **Updated By** - The user account responsible for the most recent update to the process state.

Select Fabric SQL to view the configuration, connection details, and execution outcome of the writeback operation specific to your Microsoft Fabric SQL database destination.

Select the specific destination table entry (e.g., Sales\_Plan\_Writeback\_12) to view detailed connection properties and execution metrics for that specific Microsoft Fabric SQL database target.

The details pane provides the following information:

* **Type** - Identifies the destination platform (Fabric SQL).
* **Host** - The server endpoint URL used to establish the connection to your Fabric environment.
* **Database Name** - The target database for the writeback execution.
* **Schema** - The database schema containing the target table.
* **Table Name** - The exact table designated to receive the writeback data.
* **No. of rows** - The total number of rows successfully written to the destination table during this operation.
* **Status** - Indicates whether the writeback operation to this specific destination succeeded or failed.

#### 2.Duration

Displays the total time taken to complete the writeback.

#### 3. Status

Indicates whether the writeback succeeded or failed. This column can be sorted alphabetically.

#### 4. Created at

Displays the date and time when the writeback was initiated. You can sort this column chronologically.

#### 5. Started by

Displays the user who started the writeback. You can sort this column alphabetically.

#### 6. Scenarios

Displays the scenarios included in the writeback. If no scenario was written back, the console shows **Base**.

#### 7. Incoming Cell Count

Displays the number of cells written back from the report.

#### 8. Event

Displays the type of log entry, such as Writeback or Reset.

#### 9. Writeback Type

Displays the format used for the writeback, such as Long.
