Customizing Log Hashtags

Customizing Log Hashtags

Log #hashtags provide a convenient way to categorize log data, allowing for more precise searches, filtering, and faster troubleshooting. While IguanaX automatically applies certain hashtags, you can also create and customize your own to suit your workflow.

In the Translator, select the component where you want to use custom #hashtags.

Open up the Help Index and navigate to the iguana.log API.

Our help documentation outlines several examples of how to use this API. For our purpose, we will use the example with tags:

Implement the API parameters in your Translator script to define your custom log message and #hashtag. You are able to apply multiple #hashtags to a single message.

In the example below, we want to apply “Lab Results” and “Critical Value” #hashtags whenever a patient’s lab results falls outside safe physiological limits and requires immediate attention:

Go to your logs and start your component. You’ll see your custom log message and #hashtag appear whenever the scripting conditions are met.

Click on a #hashtag in the log to automatically populate the “Search the Tags” field in the Filters section. This makes it easy to isolate related log entries.
