===== Configuring Logging Actions
You configure logging actions in a watch's `actions` array. Action-specific attributes are
specified using the `logging` keyword.
The following snippet shows a simple logging action definition:
[source,json]
--------------------------------------------------
"actions" : {
"log" : { <1>
"transform" : { ... }, <2>
"logging" : {
"text" : "executed at {{ctx.execution_time}}" <3>
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The id of the action.
<2> An optional <<transform, transform>> to transform the payload before executing the `logging` action.
<3> The text to be logged.
