Metabase server and console logs

Metabase will log errors, both on the server and in the browser console, depending on where the error occurs, which can help you track down an issue. Administrators will have access to the server logs, and everyone with a browser can open the developer tools to see the console logs.

If you're logged into Metabase with an Admin account, you can also access the logs by clicking on the gears icon in the top right of the main nav, selecting Admin, clicking on the Troubleshooting tab, then viewing the Logs tab. Check out How to read the server logs.
