# Logging

### Set the log level to TRACE

Setting the log level to trace configures the server to trace-log all the headers given in forward auth requests.

This is helpful to confirm that certain required Headers are correctly forwarded from the reverse proxy.



### When using the environment variable

Set the Goma log level to TRACE:

Add the following block to your .env file:
```shell
GOMA_LOG_LEVEL=trace
```

### When using a configuration file

Edit the Goma settings and set `logLevel: trace`.
