B2C Logs Skill

Use the b2c CLI to retrieve and monitor log files on Salesforce B2C Commerce instances. The logs get command is designed for agent-friendly, non-interactive log retrieval with structured JSON output.

Tip: If b2c is not installed globally, use npx @salesforce/b2c-cli instead (e.g., npx @salesforce/b2c-cli logs get).

Agent-Friendly Log Retrieval

The logs get command is optimized for coding agents:

• Exits immediately after retrieving logs (non-interactive)
• Supports --json for structured output
• Filters by time, level, and text search
• Auto-normalizes file paths for IDE click-to-open

Examples

Get Recent Logs

# Get last 20 entries from error and customerror logs (default)
b2c logs get

# Get last 50 entries
b2c logs get --count 50

# JSON output for programmatic parsing
b2c logs get --json

Filter by Time

# Entries from the last 5 minutes
b2c logs get --since 5m

# Entries from the last 1 hour
b2c logs get --since 1h

# Entries from the last 2 days
b2c logs get --since 2d

# Entries after a specific time (ISO 8601)
b2c logs get --since "2026-01-25T10:00:00"

Filter by Log Level

# Only ERROR level entries
b2c logs get --level ERROR

# ERROR and FATAL entries
b2c logs get --level ERROR --level FATAL

Search Text

# Search for "OrderMgr" in messages
b2c logs get --search OrderMgr

# Search for payment errors
b2c logs get --search "PaymentProcessor"

Combined Filters

# Recent errors containing "PaymentProcessor"
b2c logs get --since 1h --level ERROR --search "PaymentProcessor" --json

# Last hour of errors and fatals from specific log types
b2c logs get --filter error --filter warn --since 1h --level ERROR --level FATAL

List Available Log Files

# List all log files
b2c logs list

# List specific log types
b2c logs list --filter error --filter customerror

# JSON output
b2c logs list --json

Real-Time Tailing (Human Use)

For interactive log monitoring (not for agents):

# Tail error and customerror logs
b2c logs tail

# Tail specific log types
b2c logs tail --filter debug --filter error

# Tail only ERROR and FATAL level entries
b2c logs tail --level ERROR --level FATAL

# Tail with text search
b2c logs tail --search "PaymentProcessor"

# Combined filtering
b2c logs tail --filter customerror --level ERROR --search "OrderMgr"

# Stop with Ctrl+C

Downloading Full Log Files

To download the complete log file, use the file field from the JSON output with b2c-cli:b2c-webdav:

b2c webdav get error-odspod-0-appserver-20260126.log --root=logs -o -

JSON Output Structure

When using --json, logs get returns:

{
  "count": 1,
  "entries": [
    {
      "file": "error-odspod-0-appserver-20260126.log",
      "timestamp": "2026-01-26 04:38:03.022 GMT",
      "level": "ERROR",
      "message": "PipelineCallServlet|156679877|Sites-Site|...",
      "raw": "[2026-01-26 04:38:03.022 GMT] ERROR PipelineCallServlet|..."
    }
  ]
}
