The Manage Application Logs dashboard shows the in-built log filters and any application logs that have been created. You cannot edit the in-built log filters but you can stop and restart them. You can create, edit, start, stop, and delete application logs. 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.
