Searching a Debug Log

To search for text in a debug log, use the Command Line Window in the Developer Console.

1. To open the Command Line Window, click CTRL+L.
2. Execute Apex code to generate a log:
   • To enter Apex statements at the command-line, type exec <Apex statements>.

     For example:

     exec List<Account> accts = new List<Account>();
     for (Integer i=0; i<20; i++){
     	Account a = new Account(name='Account Name ' + i);
     	accts.add(a);
     }
     

   • To execute code you already entered in the Enter Apex Code window, type exec-r.
3. After the log has been generated, type find <string> to search for the specified text.
   For example: find Account Name.
   Search results are displayed in the Command Line Window.
4. To close the Command Line Window, click CTRL+L.
