# Viewing logs (classic)

## Introduction

Having [accessed run logs](/product-documentation/process-flows/error-reporting-and-exception-handling/run-logs-and-queue.md) and selected the **view logs (classic)** option for a given flow run, you can view detailed logs and payloads for that run:

Here, you can scroll down the page to view information for each step of the process flow.
