Can Kopia UI display the logs of the snapshot creation?

[vonhabsi]

I can’t see any way of checking Kopia’s logs and according to some threads here the capability is not present in Kopia UI.

Are the logs stored somewhere on disk so they can be read using an external tool?

There are some older threads on the issue and I wonder that feature has been implemented since then.

AFAIK there is no built-in feature to read logs from the GUI but log files are stored in plaintext in the $KOPIA_LOG_DIR directory (by default ~/.cache/kopia on Unix and C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\kopia on Windows).

The kopia logs command can also be used to list and display logs from the CLI.
