Viewing the Transaction Log
You can view file transactions on your ActiveTransfer Server. By default, the search list is populated with the file transaction details of the current day. You can further filter the file transaction log based on criteria such as date and time, trigger source, status of the file transfer, search text, transaction ID, and file name.
To view a file transaction log
1. On the navigation pane, select Logs > Transaction log.
2. On the Transaction log page, you can filter the log based on the following criteria:
Field | Description |
Date and time | Select a time period from the list or specify a custom date range, and click Ok. |
Trigger source | Select a source that triggered the file transaction from the following options: |
User | You can specify the following additional filters: Partner: Select either All partners or Specific partner, type the partner name in the box, and click Ok. User: Select either All users or Specific user, type the user name in the box, and click Ok. Operation: Select All, Upload, or Download based on transaction type. Protocols: Select one or more transmission protocols. You can select All, All secure protocols (FTPS, SFTP, HTTPS, SCP, and WebDAVs), Non-secure protocols (HTTP, FTP, and WebDAV), or individual protocols. |

Status | Select whether to show All, Success, or Failed transactions. |
Comment | Type the text based on which you want to search for transactions. |
Transaction ID | Type the transaction ID of the file transfer. |
File name | Type either the partial or complete name of the file based on which you want to search for transactions that match the specified file name.
