If you'd like to increase the level of detail in your logs, try these steps. |

If your logs are not detailed enough, there are several steps you can take to make them more useful.
You can enable step debug logging in {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} to increase the verbosity of a job's logs during and after a job's execution. For more information, see "AUTOTITLE."
You can obtain artifacts to help you debug {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}.
The debug artifacts will be uploaded to the workflow run as an artifact named debug-artifacts
. The data contains the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} logs, {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} database(s), extracted source code files, and any SARIF file(s) produced by the workflow. For more information about downloading {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} artifacts, see "AUTOTITLE."
These artifacts will help you debug problems with {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %}. If you contact GitHub support, they might ask for this data.

Creating {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} debugging artifacts by re-running jobs with debug logging enabled
You can create {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} debugging artifacts by enabling debug logging and re-running the jobs. For more information about re-running {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} workflows and jobs, see "AUTOTITLE."
You need to ensure that you select Enable debug logging. This option enables runner diagnostic logging and step debug logging for the run. You'll then be able to download debug-artifacts
to investigate further. You do not need to modify the workflow file when creating {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} debugging artifacts by re-running jobs.
{% endif %}
You can create {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} debugging artifacts by using a flag in your workflow. For this, you need to modify the init
step of your {% data variables.code-scanning.codeql_workflow %} file and set debug: true
.
- name: Initialize CodeQL
uses: {% data reusables.actions.action-codeql-action-init %}
with:
debug: true
