Log details and filters improvements

We have made a series of improvements to the traffic logs interface, focused on log details and filtering.

Richer log details

The detail view of a log entry now shows the details of the rule that was triggered for that request, so you can see exactly which rule matched, and which trigger and actions it applied, without leaving the log.

The request URL can also be broken down into its components: switch the URL field to "parsed" mode to see the scheme, host, path and query parameters listed separately, which makes long or parameter-heavy URLs much easier to read.

Clearer filtering

The log filters are now grouped into logical families - "Request", "Response" and "Other" - so the filter you need is easier to find. The same filters interface has also been carried over to the rules list, so filtering rules works just like filtering logs.

Together, the triggered-rule details, the parsed URL view and the reorganized filters make the redirection.io log explorer a genuinely comfortable tool to explore your traffic, and we have many more improvements in mind.

Open your traffic logs to try these out. Working with logs is described in the logs documentation.
