How do I enable Mobile Agent DEBUG logging for IOS?

If your Mobile Agent version is 4.5, 4.4 & 4.3, you need to use the loggingLevel method to enable and set the different logging levels in your instrumentation code.

 

For instance:

// appKey should be assigned your EUM app key
    ADEumAgentConfiguration *config = [[ADEumAgentConfiguration alloc] initWithAppKey:@ "AD-AAB-AAK-VMJ"];
    config.loggingLevel = ADEumLoggingLevelAll;
    [ADEumInstrumentation initWithConfiguration:config];
 
Screenshot:
4.5,4.4 & 4.34.5,4.4 & 4.3 

If your Mobile Agent version is 4.2 & below, you need to use the enableLogging boolean property to enable it.

 

 [ADEumInstrumentation initWithKey:@"<App Key>" collectorUrl:@“<Collector URL>" enableLogging:<Boolean>];


[ADEumInstrumentation initWithKey: @"EUM-AAB-AAD"
                             collectorUrl: @"http://localhost:7001"
                            enableLogging: YES];

 

Note: AppDynamics logs are prepended with tag x/AppDynamics, where x = the first letter of the log level. i/AppDynamics indicates INFO level logging and D/AppDynamics indicates DEBUG level logging.

 

Once you have enabled the above DEBUG logging and re-build and run your app in a simulator using Xcode, you will see your debug logs in the console/terminal window in the debug area of the Xcode.

 

Typical  IOS Agent DEBUG logging:
