Logs

Memgraph Lab allows you to view logs directly within the application, making it easier to debug queries, monitor system behavior and understand how Memgraph is operating under the hood. To see logs from the Memgraph Lab interface, make sure to open port 7444 when running Memgraph with Docker.

Enable log access

To ensure logs are visible in Memgraph Lab:

1. If you’re running Memgraph via Docker, include the port mapping in your Docker command:

docker run -p 7687:7687 -p 7444:7444 memgraph/memgraph

2. Port 7444 enables communication between Memgraph and Lab for log streaming.
3. Once this is done, navigate to the Logs section in the sidebar and logs should start appearing in real time.

Adjust log display settings

You can control how many logs are visible by default by going to the Settings panel in Memgraph Lab. Options include:

• Setting the maximum number of log entries shown in the interface.
• Filtering log entries by type (e.g., INFO, WARNING, ERROR).
• Clearing logs manually to reduce clutter while debugging.

This flexibility ensures you can tailor the logging view based on your workflow and focus only on what matters.
