About ¶

KissLog.Frontend is a user-interface application used by developers to visualize the captured errors, logs and other metrics data.

KissLog.Frontend is generating the user-interface by consuming KissLog.Backend REST endpoints.

KissLog.Frontend arhitecture¶

KissLog.Frontend uses a JSON Web Token (JWT) for authentication.

The authentication JWT must be signed with the secret provided under Authorization.HS256Secret property from the KissLog.json file.

For the default value of “Authorization.HS256Secret” (“_ChangeThis_4H3Q935LLRG5TEPNVUYOQPRS0SXLT3ML_”), you can use the following authentication JWT:

eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.e30.FI5EFsgHo6MvkU7UXyu0wK6ZfpKA3y2vlVfmwFNEyMc@your.name

Authenticated user name can be specified in one of the following options:

at the end of the JWT using token@username
in the JWT payload using any of these properties: “emailAddress”, “email”, “name”, “username”, “user”

The authentication JWT can be created programmatically or online (using https://jwt.io/, for example).

You can automate the login process by specifying the JWT as a query string parameter: /OnPremiseAuth/Login?token={JWT}.

For example, you can bookmark this URL and, once accessed, KissLog will automatically login the user using the bookmarked token.
