ADF - Copy Activity - Logging not happening

Kothai Ramanathan 941 Microsoft Employee

Following is the setting that I have enabled in my Copy activity.

If I test the connection, the blob is reachable. However, there is no logging happening in the container, though files are copied successfully. Please provide some pointers as to why this is the case, thanks!

It must be logging the details only when there is a failure. Try copy some folder which doesn't exists, mention a fake folder name in Copy activity.

Reference - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/copy-activity-data-consistency

Above doc says -

The session log contains inconsistent files only, where the successfully copied files are not logged so far.

Thank you for the details. However, in the information icon, I see that it mentions that the copied files can also be logged. Is that not the case ? Kindly clarify.

Hi @Kothai Ramanathan and @Vaibhav Chaudhari ,

Thanks for posting the details. This feature is still in preview and there is limitation currently as stated in documentation as in below snap. Alternatives to retrieve logging information can be used currently and I will share workarounds suggested by Product team in this thread.

Hope this clarifies! Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
