To troubleshoot issues with the WorkSpaces Applications client, you can enable diagnostic logging. The log files that are sent to WorkSpaces Applications include detailed information about your device and connection to the AWS network. You can enable diagnostic log uploads before or during WorkSpaces Applications streaming sessions, so these files are sent to WorkSpaces Applications automatically. As a best practice, we recommend that you enable log upload to help the WorkSpaces Applications team troubleshoot issues.

To enable file logging, follow these steps:

1. Choose **AppStream 2.0** from the system menu bar, or navigate to the top-right corner of the **Connect** page.

1. Choose **Client Options** and **Client automatic logging**.
