Enable logging dropbox sdk java

Hi.

I would like to know whether it is possible enable logging for all request and response data. I am using dropbox sdk java. In some cases, it can be useful to see the exact requests and responses that the Dropbox SDK for Java sends and receives.

 

Thank you for your response.

  • The Dropbox Java SDK itself doesn't have methods for enabling logging, but if you're using the StandardHttpRequestor (the default) you can enable logging output like this:

     

    Logger.getLogger("").setLevel(Level.ALL);
    final java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler consoleHandler = new java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler();
    consoleHandler.setLevel(Level.ALL);
    Logger.getLogger("").addHandler(consoleHandler);
