Pod Logs

ACTIVATE lets you view container logs for any running pod directly in the web UI, so you can debug and monitor workloads without switching to a terminal.

Viewing Logs

  1. Go to Kubernetes > Workloads
  2. Select a cluster and namespace
  3. Click on a pod name to open its detail page
  4. Scroll down to the Logs panel

The Logs panel displays the most recent log output from the pod's container in a scrollable viewer.

Pod-Level Only

The Logs panel only appears when viewing an individual pod. For higher-level workloads such as Deployments or StatefulSets, navigate to one of their child pods to access logs.

Real-Time Streaming

The viewer loads the most recent 100 lines of log output, then automatically polls for new lines every few seconds. New output is appended to the bottom of the viewer as it arrives — you don't need to refresh the page.

Duplicate lines are automatically filtered out, so you'll always see a clean, continuous log stream.

Longer History

If you need more history than the viewer shows, or want to filter by time, use kubectl logs with the --tail and --since-time flags via kubectl access.

Session Persistence

Logs are accumulated in the browser for the duration of your session. If you navigate away from the pod and return, the log viewer resets and fetches the latest lines again.
