# Debugging

Android VGS Show SDK generates different debug-logs to highlight important information for developer during the work process. When it became too verbose for you, there is ability to change default behaviour and minimize or disable debug information.

> You may always debug your setup with [Access Logger](/vault/http-proxy/access-logger.md), by seeing requests statuses, payload diffs, matched information etc.

## Log levels

VGS Show SDK defines 3 log levels for controlling debug logs.

* **DEBUG**. We print all information about processing. It includes errors, warnings, notifications, debug messages, requests, and responses.
* **WARN**. This setting allows you to minimize information and print only errors, warnings.
* **NONE**. Disable debug logs.

You can switch the debug-log level with `setLogLevel` method.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Kotlin" %}

```kotlin
VGSShowLogger.logLevel = VGSShowLogger.Level.WARN
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Java" %}

```java
VGSShowLogger.INSTANCE.setLogLevel(VGSShowLogger.Level.WARN);
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The `isDebugEnabled()` method helps you to check if the debug log is enabled.

> Don't forget to disable logs for you production Application.

## Disable logging

To disable all logging activities, you can use `setEnabled()` method.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Kotlin" %}

```kotlin
VGSShowLogger.isEnabled = false
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Java" %}

```java
VGSShowLogger.INSTANCE.setEnabled(false);
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
