Hi, The log messages sent to our API from your device are limited to a maximum length of 10,000 characters. The string [...] is used to indicate that some log output has been truncated. The source code implementing this truncation can be seen here https://github.com/balena-io/balena-supervisor/blob/master/src/logging-backends/balena-backend.ts#L93
To get around this, you could either break your application’s log output into smaller chunks, or only log the information that you need to inspect.
