Important

Log Views require Message Types and Search Fields to unlock their full power

To enable self-service search by business data (Order IDs, Customer Numbers, etc.), you must:

1. Message Types - Define business transaction types first
2. Search Field Expressions - Configure expressions to extract business data based on Message Types
3. Log Views - Create views that use Search Fields for powerful filtering

Without Message Types and Search Fields configured, Log Views can only search by timestamps, correlation IDs, and basic properties—missing the critical business intelligence that makes Nodinite powerful.
