# Logs

Logs provides plain, chronological display of colored logs.

The *Logs* tab displays a chronological list view of your log lines. PacketAI stores each log line as a JSON record and displays each JSON property as a grid column. The Logs UI is pretty simple, yet powerful, and enables full customization of the number, order and name of columns.&#x20;

## Organizing columns

The UI lets you seamlessly show/hide column as well as modify column order.

* Clicking on the "*X columns hidden*" button brings up a menu from which you can show/hide column using a simple click. You can also re-arrange column order by drag-and-dropping properties
