Save a list of logged events

If you have permissions, before you remove entries from the event log you should save them for troubleshooting purposes. You can save individual event log entries to the clipboard or download all entries during a specific date range at once to a comma-separated list (CSV) file.

You don't have to be an administrator, but you must be granted permissions to work with event logs.
