With v10.6.11, FlowWright is enabled with a Telemetry Provider Engine Service that allows a system to "see" and understand its own performance and the state of its remote components by collecting and delivering the necessary data for analysis and management.
The Telemetry Provider DLLs contain all the necessary information to access the data source, including URLs for observability tools or paths to files.
You can create a custom Telemetry Provider to maintain a data backup of all the FlowWright application logs.
Note: You must navigate to the Status> Upgrade> Version Changes page and complete the version changes update. This one-time activity is required when the FlowWright environment has been upgraded from the older version to 10.6.11.
You must navigate to the Administration - Telemetry Providers page.
The Telemetry Providers page renders a default list of 14 providers as shown below.

The Telemetry Configuration Log page appears as shown below. The table displays the log type, Telemetry Provider name, and a link to navigate to the parameters. Each FlowWright application log is automatically associated with a Telemetry Provider through the parameter mappings supplied by the DLL. The Telemetry Engine Service monitors the FlowWright application logs hourly and transfers the log data to the provider site based on the configuration mapping.
Select the “Telemetry Configuration” menu to access the following options: “Telemetry Providers, System Log, Audit Log, Data Access Log, Engine Log, Security Log, ETL Log, MicroServices Call Log, Rest API Log”.
In this example, each application log is associated with a specific Telemetry Provider.
