Major restructuring of documentation to separate concerns: **New Structure:** - `/docs/` - User-facing docs (intro, quickstart, databases, using-superset, faq) - `/admin-docs/` - Administrator docs (installation, configuration, security) - `/developer-docs/` - Developer docs (contributing, extensions, guidelines, testing) **Changes:** - Move installation, configuration, and security docs to admin_docs/ - Move contributing, extensions, guidelines, and testing to developer_docs/ - Rename developer_portal to developer_docs (with underscore to hyphen in URL) - Add sidebarAdminDocs.js for admin documentation navigation - Update versions-config.json with new doc sections - Update docusaurus.config.ts with new plugins and redirects - Update internal links in versioned docs (6.0.0) to use new paths - Keep user-facing content (databases, using-superset, faq) in main docs This separation makes it clearer which documentation is relevant for: - End users exploring and visualizing data - Administrators deploying and configuring Superset - Developers contributing to or extending Superset Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Logging
|
||
|
||
## Event Logging
|
||
|
||
Superset by default logs special action events in its internal database (DBEventLogger). These logs can be accessed
|
||
on the UI by navigating to **Security > Action Log**. You can freely customize these logs by
|
||
implementing your own event log class.
|
||
**When custom log class is enabled DBEventLogger is disabled and logs
|
||
stop being populated in UI logs view.**
|
||
To achieve both, custom log class should extend built-in DBEventLogger log class.
|
||
|
||
Here's an example of a simple JSON-to-stdout class:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
def log(self, user_id, action, *args, **kwargs):
|
||
records = kwargs.get('records', list())
|
||
dashboard_id = kwargs.get('dashboard_id')
|
||
slice_id = kwargs.get('slice_id')
|
||
duration_ms = kwargs.get('duration_ms')
|
||
referrer = kwargs.get('referrer')
|
||
|
||
for record in records:
|
||
log = dict(
|
||
action=action,
|
||
json=record,
|
||
dashboard_id=dashboard_id,
|
||
slice_id=slice_id,
|
||
duration_ms=duration_ms,
|
||
referrer=referrer,
|
||
user_id=user_id
|
||
)
|
||
print(json.dumps(log))
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
End by updating your config to pass in an instance of the logger you want to use:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
EVENT_LOGGER = JSONStdOutEventLogger()
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## StatsD Logging
|
||
|
||
Superset can be configured to log events to [StatsD](https://github.com/statsd/statsd)
|
||
if desired. Most endpoints hit are logged as
|
||
well as key events like query start and end in SQL Lab.
|
||
|
||
To setup StatsD logging, it’s a matter of configuring the logger in your `superset_config.py`.
|
||
If not already present, you need to ensure that the `statsd`-package is installed in Superset's python environment.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from superset.stats_logger import StatsdStatsLogger
|
||
STATS_LOGGER = StatsdStatsLogger(host='localhost', port=8125, prefix='superset')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Note that it’s also possible to implement your own logger by deriving
|
||
`superset.stats_logger.BaseStatsLogger`.
