2 Windows clients
This chapter contains information on configuring logging for the MyID Windows clients:
- 
                    
MyID Desktop.
 - 
                    
MyID Client Service.
 - 
                    
Self-Service App.
 -

To enable logging for each of these client applications, you must edit the application's configuration file.
- 
                    
For MyID Desktop, the configuration file is:
MyIDDesktop.exe.config
and is located in the following folder by default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Intercede\MyIDDesktop\
 - 
                    
For the MyID Client Service, the configuration file is:
MyIDClientService.dll.config
and is located in the following folder by default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Intercede\MyIDClientService
 - 
                    
For the Self-Service App, the configuration file is:
MyIDApp.exe.config
and is located in the following folder by default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Intercede\MyIDApp\Self Service Application
 - 
                    
For the Self-Service Kiosk, the configuration file is:
MyIDKiosk.exe.config
and is located in the following folder by default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Intercede\MyIDSelfServiceKiosk\
 
To enable logging:
- 
                    
On the client PC, back up the configuration file.
 - 
                    
Open the configuration file in a text editor.
 - 
                    
Add the following to the <appsettings> section of the configuration file:
<add key="EnableLogging" value="true"/>
Set the value to true to enable logging, or false to disable logging.
By default, the log is written to the following folder:
%LocalAppData%\Intercede\Logs
If you want to specify a different location, add the following to the <appsettings> section of the configuration file:
<add key="LogDirectory" value="C:\Logs"/>
Set the value to the folder where you want to write the logs.
 - 
                    
Save the configuration file.
 - 
                    
Restart the application.
 
Note: If you are using the MSIX installer for your client applications, by default the logs are written to the following folder:
%LocalAppData%\Intercede
If the logs are not displayed in this folder as expected, use the LogDirectory setting to specify a different folder.
