Multiple applications logged in one instance of seq

[johnhoge]

Is there a nice clean way to log from multiple apps into Seq? I know there is a 3 instance pack license but that would involve logging in to all 3 on a regular basis to see if there were any issues. I'd rather just log in to once and see if there are any issues with any of my apps.

Hi @johnhoge; yes, Seq's designed to accept logs from multiple apps into a single, central instance.

To keep track of which events are from which app, the best approach is to create a unique API key for each app, and use the "attached properties" option to mark ingested events with an application name.

Once the events are ingested, you can create signals based on the application name to filter down to just one app or another:

Hope this helps,

Hi Nick, Never mind my last email I forgot to set the attached properties. All set now. Thanks for your help.
