Trying to send logs to remote http server using serilog-sinks-http and Serilog.Exceptions is required to get exception details.

In Serilog.Exceptions documents it required outputTemplate to be set to {Timestamp:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff zzz} [{Level:u3}] {Message:lj}{NewLine}{Exception} {Properties:j} to work.

Couldn't find outputTemplate parameter in HTTP Sink, now logs look similar to:

03/06/2024 13:00:00 +03:30 [Error] Error occured
System.DivideByZeroException: Attempted to divide by zero.
   at logexample.Program.Main(String[] args) in D:\repos\logexample\Program.cs:line 29

Also innerException is needed to be placed in logs (innerException itself may contain another innerException which all are needed).

  • There are fundamentally two type of sinks - text-based (console, file) and structured (all others). OutputTemplate string is applied only to first type of them. HttpSink just sends LogEvent occured as application/json content. So, no need for you to set up template for serilog-sinks-http. Commented Mar 6, 2024 at 10:22
  • Then how should I get exception details to send via HTTP sink ? Commented Mar 6, 2024 at 10:23
  • Check out sample code. I did not check for the case with ExceptionDetails, but basic usage puts Exception text as part of RenderedMessage property. Commented Mar 6, 2024 at 10:30
  • I believe details should be part of the message too. Commented Mar 6, 2024 at 10:37
