Auditing searchservice in Alfresco Enterprise v5.1.1

deshdeepak1947 — Wed, 09 Sep 2020 09:42:44 GMT

I want to audit search parameters used in alfresco search form.

I am using version : Alfresco Enterprise v5.1.1

If i search jbong then in alfresco log i want to see something like this: /alfresco-api/post/SearchService/query/args/searchParameters=jbong*

but it is showing /alfresco-api/pre/SearchService/query/args=null

Any help or suggestion will be highly appriciated. thnaks a lot.

===========================================================

Here is the detail of my steps and configurations

suppose i am searching "jbong"

I am not doing anyhting in sdk in this case, i am refereing /opt/<alfresco-home>/alfresco.log or console /opt/<alfresco-log>/tomcat/lgs/catalina.out

if you want to know the location of alfresco.log in sdk project then it would be your project root folder, location
