This version is still in development and is not considered stable yet. For the latest stable version, please use Spring Boot 3.4.0!spring-doc.cn

Loggers

Spring Boot Actuator includes the ability to view and configure the log levels of your application at runtime. You can view either the entire list or an individual logger’s configuration, which is made up of both the explicitly configured logging level as well as the effective logging level given to it by the logging framework. These levels can be one of:spring-doc.cn

null indicates that there is no explicit configuration.spring-doc.cn

Configure a Logger

To configure a given logger, POST a partial entity to the resource’s URI, as the following example shows:spring-doc.cn

{
	"configuredLevel": "DEBUG"
}

To “reset” the specific level of the logger (and use the default configuration instead), you can pass a value of null as the configuredLevel.

OpenTelemetry

By default, logging via OpenTelemetry is not configured. You have to provide the location of the OpenTelemetry logs endpoint to configure it:spring-doc.cn

Propertiesspring-doc.cn
YAMLspring-doc.cn

management.otlp.logging.endpoint=https://otlp.example.com:4318/v1/logs

management:
  otlp:
    logging:
      endpoint: "https://otlp.example.com:4318/v1/logs"

The OpenTelemetry Logback appender and Log4j appender are not part of Spring Boot. For more details, see the OpenTelemetry Logback appender or the OpenTelemetry Log4j2 appender in the OpenTelemetry Java instrumentation GitHub repository.

You have to configure the appender in your logback-spring.xml or log4j2-spring.xml configuration to get OpenTelemetry logging working.

The OpenTelemetryAppender for both Logback and Log4j requires access to an OpenTelemetry instance to function properly. This instance must be set programmatically during application startup, which can be done like this:spring-doc.cn

import io.opentelemetry.api.OpenTelemetry;
import io.opentelemetry.instrumentation.logback.appender.v1_0.OpenTelemetryAppender;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.InitializingBean;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

@Component
class OpenTelemetryAppenderInitializer implements InitializingBean {

	private final OpenTelemetry openTelemetry;

	OpenTelemetryAppenderInitializer(OpenTelemetry openTelemetry) {
		this.openTelemetry = openTelemetry;
	}

	@Override
	public void afterPropertiesSet() {
		OpenTelemetryAppender.install(this.openTelemetry);
	}

}
