Console JSON HTTP Operation Log Publishers publish JSON-formatted HTTP operation log messages to the JVM's original standard output or standard error stream.
The Console JSON HTTP Operation Log Publisher component inherits from the JSON Formatted HTTP Operation Log Publisher

Property Group | General Configuration |
Description | Indicates whether the Console JSON HTTP Operation Log Publisher is enabled for use. |
Default Value | None |
Allowed Values | true false |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | Yes |
Admin Action Required | The Console JSON HTTP Operation Log Publisher is primarily intended to be used for server instances that are run in no-detach mode (that is, instances that are started with the --nodetach argument). When the logger is used in a server that is not running in no-detach mode, it may have reduced performance and functionality. |
Property Group | General Configuration |
Description | Specifies the behavior that the server should exhibit if an error occurs during logging processing. |
Default Value | standard-error |
Allowed Values | standard-error - Write a message to standard error in the event of a logging failure. lockdown-mode - Place the server in lockdown mode in the event of a logging failure. |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
Property Group | Log File Management |
Description | Indicates whether the JSON objects should use a multi-line representation (with each object field and array value on its own line) that may be easier for administrators to read, but each message will be larger (because of additional spaces and end-of-line markers), and it may be more difficult to consume and parse through some text-oriented tools. |
Default Value | false |
Allowed Values | true false |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
Property Group | Log File Management |

Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
include-request-details-in-result-messages
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |
Description | Indicates whether result log messages should include all of the elements of request log messages. This may be used to record a single message per operation with details about both the request and response. |
Default Value | true |
Allowed Values | true false |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |
Description | Indicates whether request log messages should include information about HTTP headers included in the request. |
Default Value | none |
Allowed Values | none - Indicates that no information about request headers should be logged. header-names - Indicates that only the names of request headers should be logged, but the values should be suppressed. header-names-and-values - Indicates that request header names and values should be logged. Note that request headers may include sensitive information, so it may be desirable to suppress information about one or more such request headers. |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
suppressed-request-header-name
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |
Description | Specifies the case-insensitive names of request headers that should be omitted from log messages (e.g., for the purpose of brevity or security). This will only be used if the log-request-headers property has a value of true. For security reasons, the "Authorization" and "Cookie" headers will be suppressed by default. The "Content-Length" header will be suppressed because it will be included in the contentLength element, and the "Content-Type" header will be suppressed because it will be included in the contentType log element. If all request headers should be logged, then a nonsense value that will not appear as a valid request header should be provided. |
Default Value | Authorization Content-Length Content-Type Cookie |
Allowed Values | A string |
Multi-Valued | Yes |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |
Description | Indicates whether response log messages should include information about HTTP headers included in the response. |
Default Value | none |
Allowed Values | none - Indicates that no information about response headers should be logged. header-names - Indicates that only the names of response headers should be logged, but the values should be suppressed. header-names-and-values - Indicates that response header names and values should be logged. Note that response headers may include sensitive information, so it may be desirable to suppress information about one or more such response headers. |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
suppressed-response-header-name
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |
Description | Specifies the case-insensitive names of response headers that should be omitted from log messages (e.g., for the purpose of brevity or security). This will only be used if the log-response-headers property has a value of true. For security reasons, the "Set-Cookie" header will be suppressed by default. The "Location" header will also be suppressed because its value will normally be included in the redirectURI log element, the "Content-Length" header will be suppressed because it will be included in the contentLength log element, and the "Content-Type" will be suppressed because it will be included in the contentType element. If all response headers should be logged, then a nonsense value that will not appear as a valid response header should be provided. |
Default Value | Content-Length Content-Type Location Set-Cookie |
Allowed Values | A string |
Multi-Valued | Yes |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
log-request-authorization-type
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |

Allowed Values | true false |
Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |

Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |

Multi-Valued | No |
Required | No |
Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |
Description | Indicates what (if any) information about request parameters should be included in request log messages. Note that this will only be used for requests with a method other than GET, since GET request parameters will be included in the request URL. |
Default Value | parameter-names |
Allowed Values | none - Indicates that no information about request parameters should be logged. parameter-names - Indicates that only the names of request parameters should be logged, but the values should be suppressed. parameter-names-and-values - Indicates that request parameter names and values should be logged. Note that request parameters may include sensitive information, so it may be desirable to suppress information about one or more such request parameters. |

include-thread-id (Advanced Property)
Property Group | Log Message Elements To Include |

This ID can be used to correlate log messages from the same thread within a single log as well as generated by the same thread across different types of log files. More information about the thread with a specific ID can be obtained using the cn=JVM Stack Trace,cn=monitor entry. |
Default Value | false |
