Output Log File
Logging is enabled at the system or user level, either from System Settings or User Settings. When logging is enabled, the content of the log file will resemble the contents of the Results window each time a workflow is run, including all runs from the GUI, command line, or API. The log that is generated will be named "Alteryx_Log_*sequential#*.log in UTF-16 format.
