Creating an application log filter

Application log filters are provided and are listed in the Manage Application Logs dashboard. If the provided filters do not meet your requirements, you can create additional filters. All log filters are available as predefined filters in the View Application Logs dashboard. The provided filters run until or unless you stop them. You can specify a finite lifetime for filters that you create but the lifetime is not saved with the filter.
