How can i get http log from report server?

I added the snippet below to the configuration files, but the log didn't show up. I've restarted the services too.

Files:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Report Server\PBIRS\ReportServer\bin\ReportingServicesService.exe.config

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS13.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\bin\ReportingServicesService.exe.config

Hi tfoliveira ,

The HTTP log is created after you enable it in the configuration file (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Report Server\PBIRS\ReportServer\bin\ReportingServicesService.exe.config), restart the service, and the report server handles an HTTP request. If you configure the settings but do not see the log file, open a report or start a report server application (such as the web portal) to generate an HTTP request to create the file.

HI Anonymous ,

I did this, but for some reason it's only logging when I access the WebService, the portal access is not being logged.

Hi tfoliveira ,

It will only log the client who access to the report server. Please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-server/report-server-http-log?view=sql-server-ver15#log-file-fields

just to history - it works only with ReportServer (http://url/reportserver) portal and not with Power BI portal (http://url/Reports/browser)
