📄 Logs

Chipper ingests log files generated by your lab hardware — such as Hamilton robots, Tecan systems, or other instrumentation.

These logs are the source of truth for operational activity. Chipper parses each line to extract timestamps, actions, errors, and context to generate meaningful events.

⚙️ Configure how Chipper ingests logs​

Chipper supports three methods for ingesting your lab logs:

  1. Manual Upload - Upload log files directly through the web interface
  2. AWS - Automatically sync logs from your AWS S3 Bucket
  3. Azure - Automatically sync logs from your Azure Container

For cloud storage providers, Chipper can either ingest logs automatically (recommended) or every hour

Once uploaded or streamed, logs are processed in real-time. Events are created from matched patterns. These events then feed into thresholds, alerts, and dashboards.
