Silly Questions about: System Log Source == *** Script

[Geoffrey Bishop]

I'm curious about the system log source *** Script
...as you can see in the rightmost column of this screenshot:

When I group the list view by Source, I see the following:

I see the API documentation here but it does not really explain how a source is selected when the optional "source" parameter is not specified.  Here are my questions:

1)  Why are there three stars in front of the "Script".  Why is is "*** Script" instead of just "Script"?

2)  Exactly what types of script go into the *** Script bucket?  Do Business Rules go in there?  Do Script Includes go in there?  What else?  What is the complete list of types of script that would end up logging messages to the system log with a source type of "Script"?

Thank you.

Hi there,

1) I don't think there is anything significant as to why it shows up as "*** Script" instead of just "Script", but it might be to denote that it could be coming from a number of script sources instead of just a singular script source.

2) Basically any server-side script log output will show up in the *** Script bucket. That includes business rules, script includes, workflows, scripted ACLs, scheduled script executions, etc.

If this answer is helpful please mark correct and helpful!
