# Ionic Capacitor SDK: Console logs

Capture console logs for bug reports with the Gleap Ionic Capacitor SDK. Follow the integration code examples.

The Gleap SDK collects console logs by default: your app's `console.log`, `console.info`, `console.debug`, `console.warn` and `console.error` calls, uncaught errors and unhandled promise rejections, with the last 500 entries attached to every ticket. Further more you can make use of our [custom logs](#custom-logs), which offer more control over the logs.

> **Note:** On iOS and Android, the console of your app's WebView is collected in release builds too with SDK **v19.0.0** and newer. Older versions only got it in debug builds, where Capacitor forwards it to the native log.

## Disable default console logs

It is possible to disable the default collection of console logs by calling the following method prior to the initialization of Gleap.

```javascript
Gleap.disableConsoleLogOverwrite();
```

## Custom logs

Custom logs allow you to create logs in the Gleap activity log. There are three severity types available for logs: `ERROR`, `WARNING` and `INFO`.

```javascript
Gleap.log({
    message: "This is a test custom log."
});
```

By default logs will be created with the severity `INFO`. Use the following method to explicitly set the severity.

```javascript
Gleap.log({
    message: "This is a test custom log WARNING.",
    logLevel: "WARNING"
});
```
