# Logs

The Logs tab provides the `postgres_db_data_log` PostgreSQL server logs. Use these log files to troubleshoot issues. These logs are stored in the customer's cloud subscription and are only streamed to the Tessell console for viewing purposes. Tessell does not store or move these logs out of the customer's cloud accounts.

1. Choose an instance name from the dropdown list to view the logs of that instance, if there are multiple instances.
2. On the left side, view the log entries. Select a log file to view its details on the right side.
3. Click **Go Live** to view logs updated every 15 seconds. A **Live** status indicates you are viewing updated logs.
4. Use the search bar to look for specific log terms.
5. Toggle **Show line numbers** to view line numbers for all logs in the log file.
6. To view previous logs, use the **Load previous logs** button. To go to the last log line, use the **Jump to bottom** button.
7. Log files for the last hour are displayed by default. You can choose to view logs for 1, 3, 6, 12, or 24 hours. For custom timeframes, select **Custom**, choose your desired date and time, and click **Apply** in the top-right sidebar.
8. To download the log file, click the download button. The file is downloaded to your Downloads folder.
