Introduction

Wish produces a high volume of logs across many servers. Being able to locate a specific entry or group of entries can be very helpful. That’s why Wish is designed to make it easier to track down the logs you’re looking for.
This guide explains the best way to do that.

​
Searching Through Logs

At present, logs cannot be searched through the Wish website.

Instead, you’ll need to use Discord’s native search feature directly within the app.

​
Understanding Wish’s Log Layout

To search efficiently, it helps to understand how logs are structured in Wish. Below is an explanation of each element using the “Reaction Removed” log as an example:

ColorDescription
RedThe name of the event (e.g. Message Deleted, Message Edited). In this case: Reaction Removed.
BlueThe main content or summary of the log.
Light BlueA unique number identifying the user or object involved — such as a role, emoji, sticker, or channel.
OrangeThe log’s unique numerical ID — each log entry has its own.

With that background covered, let’s go over how to use this knowledge.

​
Finding Logs by User

To look up logs related to a specific person, you’ll need their user ID — a numerical identifier Discord assigns to every user. (Shown in Light Blue)

Don’t forget to replace USER_ID with the actual ID of the user you want to find logs for!

​
Finding Logs by Role

To find actions related to a role, first obtain that role’s ID number — also shown in Light Blue.

​
Finding Logs by Channel

Searching by channel works the same way: grab the channel’s unique ID and use it in Discord search.

Finding Specific Log Types by User

To narrow it down even further — for example, to find a certain type of log involving a specific user — you’ll need both their user ID and the log type.
You can find all available log types on our log types page.

Here’s a quick refresher on log layout:

ColorDescription
RedThe name of the log (e.g. Message Deleted, Message Edited). In this case: Reaction Removed.
BlueA short summary of what happened.
Light BlueThe ID of the user or object affected — this could be a role, emoji, sticker, or channel.
OrangeA numeric log ID that is unique to each entry.
