jobId (*) - The ID of the job running the process.
processName (*) - The name of the process that triggered the logging. Requires an active connection to Orchestrator.

User-defined fields

To define custom fields, use the Add Log Fields activity. These fields appear in all subsequent logs. To remove these fields from further logs, use the Remove Log Fields activity.
