Logging a multi-line message
This endpoint allows for the batch addition of log entries to the main Plex Media Server log.
It accepts a text/plain request body, where each line represents a distinct log entry.
Each log entry consists of URL-encoded key-value pairs, specifying log attributes such as ‘level’, ‘message’, and ‘source’.
Log entries are separated by a newline character (\n).
Each entry’s parameters should be URL-encoded to ensure accurate parsing and handling of special characters.
This method is efficient for logging multiple entries in a single API call, reducing the overhead of multiple individual requests.
The ‘level’ parameter specifies the log entry’s severity or importance, with the following integer values:
0: Error - Critical issues that require immediate attention.1: Warning - Important events that are not critical but may indicate potential issues.2: Info - General informational messages about system operation.3: Debug - Detailed information useful for debugging purposes.4: Verbose - Highly detailed diagnostic information for in-depth analysis.
The ‘message’ parameter contains the log text, and ‘source’ identifies the log message’s origin (e.g., an application name or module).
Example of a single log entry format:
level=4&message=Sample%20log%20entry&source=applicationName
Ensure each parameter is properly URL-encoded to avoid interpretation issues.
