Logs contain [metadata](https://dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites-sdk/test-your-site/work-with-wix-logs/log-object-structure.md) as well as the log's message. > **Notes**: > > - Wix Logs doesn't save log data. To save logs for later use, use [Google Cloud Logs](https://dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites-sdk/test-your-site/work-with-wix-logs/view-logs-with-google-cloud-logs.md) or another [external logging tool](https://dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites-sdk/test-your-site/work-with-wix-logs/view-logs-with-an-external-logging-tool.md). > - You can also use the [Site Monitoring service plugin](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/events-service-plugins/site-monitoring/service-plugins/site-monitoring/introduction.md) (Velo API) to examine Wix Logs in real time. The [`LogEntry` object](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/events-service-plugins/site-monitoring/service-plugins/site-monitoring/log-entry/introduction.md) contains the data for each log. ## View the logs 1. In the site dashboard, click **Developer Tools** > **Logging Tools**. 1. In the **Wix Logs** section, click **Open**.

To generate a log, preview, or publish a site and [trigger an event that generates a log](https://dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites-sdk/get-started/tutorials/monitoring/tutorial-generate-logs-to-debug-a-site.md).
