Working with Build Logs

If you need to troubleshoot an issue with a build, you can download the log from the build log.

The build log is a JSON file that contains build objects. The build objects contain key:value pairs that describe the build process for each table.

As the reasons for build failures vary and may be quite complex, there is not a single solution for resolving build errors. If you are not able to solve the issue yourself, save your logs and provide them to Sisense Support for additional assistance.

The table below describes some of the keys that might be included in your log and their possible values.
