Log Level: This indicates the verbosity of the information that is written to the log file. This should be set to BINARY by default, unless you are instructed by Retail Pro Technical support to send Level 3 logs for troubleshooting. 

• When the Log Level = 1, the only information that is typically written to the log file, is the errors.
• When the Log Level = 2, the only information that is typically written to the log file, is the errors, and some additional information. This may be helpful when trobleshooting issues.
• When the Log Level = 3, all activity that is occurring is written to the log file. This can be helpful when trouble shooting issues, but the content provided may be excessive. This may cause a drag on system performance.

Message Content Type: The user has the choise to select from XML, JSON, or BINARY. This indicates which message content type is used when writing to the log file. 

• If Log Level is set to 1, we suggest using BINARY as the message content type.
• If Log Level is set to 2, we suggest using BINARY as the message content type.
• If Log Level is set to 3, we suggest using JSON as the message content type. By using JSON, the message content that is displayed in the log is readable and interperable.
