The Freshworks Developer Kit (FDK) can be run in debug mode to aid app troubleshooting. Since the FDK simulates the production environment, it is often easier to catch bugs by analyzing the output of the debug mode.

The debug logs are also automatically saved in the app directory at /logs to troubleshoot the app. Ensure the version of your Freshworks CLI (FDK) is 6.12.0 or greater for the availability of an automatic debug log storage feature.

Is it possible to have an example of adding this to an NPM script?

Interesting, Rob.

Our team is working on a feature where a log file will be generated automatically. I suppose that might lower the need for an npm script to be added in the package.json.

Meanwhile, could you please describe how this can be of help to you? Do you have any system to check the logs occasionally for any thing?
