When Logister fits
Choose Logister when a bug report should start with the real failing event.
Traditional issue trackers are useful once someone writes a clear ticket. Logister starts one step earlier: the app receives the exception, groups repeated occurrences, surfaces request method and URL/path when available, links related logs, and lets the team assign an owner from the project inbox.
Workflow
Issue ownership stays close to runtime evidence.
| Bug triage need | Logister surface |
|---|---|
| Who owns this? | Error groups can be assigned to project users and filtered by assignee. |
| Is it fixed? | Status actions include mark fixed, ignore, archive, and reopen. |
| How often did it happen? | Occurrence counts, first seen, last seen, and occurrence history stay with the grouped issue. |
| What request failed? | Runtime-aware detail views show method, URL/path, stacktrace, request context, and related logs when integrations send them. |
Fit check
Logister is focused on application-error work, not every software ticket.
Use Logister for bugs that start as running-app failures and need event evidence attached to assignment. Keep a general issue tracker for roadmap work, feature requests, broad planning, and tickets that are not connected to production telemetry.
Next steps
Send one real error, then work it like a bug.
- Create a project and connect the runtime that produces the clearest production bug reports.
- Send one event with stacktrace, request context, environment, and release metadata.
- Open the inbox, assign the grouped issue, and filter by the assignee.
- Use the detail view to decide whether the issue should be fixed, ignored, archived, or left open.
- Confirm the workflow keeps enough runtime evidence for your team before linking it to a separate issue tracker.
