# Enable export debug logging

When the property glide.export.debug is true, the instance logs export processing including database query time and the time taken to write data to the file.

When the property glide.export.debug is true, the instance logs export processing including database query time and the time taken to write data to the file. Debug logs are indicated by the text Export API. Prolonged use of this property can affect performance, so it is best to use it while debugging export processing, and then set the property back to false.
