Sync profile logs

Learn how to check the status and results of a database sync with SyncPortal. You must have the Account Owner or IT Support user role assigned to access these logs.

About the logs

You can view the results of all of your employee database syncs with MRI OnLocation using the sync profile logs.

The sync profile log contains information about who was imported, updated, and deleted, any errors that occurred during sign in, and any rules that were applied. You can view an overview of the sync, a sample of the sync, and details of each record.

  1. Go to Tools > Accounts.
  2. Select Integrations from the left-hand menu.
  3. Select the SyncPortal icon.
  4. Click Settings.
  5. Click Logs next to the sync profile.
