# Logging

> How to log requests and changes to the global audit log

The logger will log all actions that happen. To do this, use the `state.Logger` object in a route. The `Logger` object has a couple of functions that you can use. The most important are the following:

* `SystemLogf`: System logging
* `JudgeLogf`: Log something the judge does
* `AdminLogf`: Log something the admin does

The logger will write to the backend's memory, as well as the database. When the server restarts, Jury will load all logs from the database.
