# Viewing a log

To view a log, click on **View server logs** and select a file from the drop down list:

<figure><img src="/files/faUc4eB8ItiqhmPTq9Xf" alt=""><figcaption><p>Server logs</p></figcaption></figure>

Please note that only files from the last 7 days will appear in the drop down. If you require access to older logs you will have to access the server using a different method.

It is highly recommended not to attempt to view very large logs this way. Extremely large logs may break the memory constraints of either the server or the console. It will also be very slow to render if the connection is low bandwidth.
