   menu.

 * Thank you!
    Now i realized this heavy file is being generated after enabling 
   conversion API settings. I followed your videos and also checked with FB´s tool
   to check that the info was being received correctly, but for some reason the 
   log file is getting huge. Could you please check what is happening in order to
   solve this situation? Can i share privately the file through Wetransfer so yo
   can check? Maybe there is a bug on the plugin. Thanks

 * Please test your server events. If they work fine, you’re all good. Just delete
   the logs and turn OFF that option.
 * Logs can contain data that’s not related to bugs, and in fact we should disable
   it by default.

 * How would you recommend to test if the server events are working fine? As this
   file only started to show up (and grow) after activating server API. On FB i 
   checked the events and seems to be fine but maybe you could suggest your way 
   to be 100% sure everything is working just finee. Thanks

 * The usual way: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqAIO1ONc0I](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqAIO1ONc0I)
 * And as I mention, the file will capture all sort of info, having it there doesn’t
   mean you have a problem, it means you send a lot of CAPI events.

 * You only store logs for CAPI events and not for the standar browser events? Is
   this the way your plugin works?

 * That debugging is strictly API related.
