The logs for a policy include a list of computers that have run the policy and the following information for each computer:

  • The date/time that the policy ran on the computer

  • The status

  • The actions logged

  1. In Jamf Pro, click Computers in the sidebar.
  2. Click Policies in the sidebar.
  3. Click the policy you want to view logs for.
  4. Click Logs.
    Note:

    Jamf Pro truncates the output of policy logs after they reach 25 KB in size. If your environment relies on scripts with detailed error messaging, you may want to modify them to minimize the outputs to simplify potential troubleshooting measures in the future.

  5. To view the actions logged for a computer, click Details for the computer.

    To hide the information when you are done viewing it, click Hide.

  6. To flush a policy log for a single computer, click Flush for the computer.
