How can i increase the amount of traces for assist?

Configuration Voice Assistant

Hi everyone,

i’m using more and more the voice assistant and the amount of stored traces is just too low.
Is it possible to increase this somewhere? (the traces seeing in “Debug assistant”)
In automation i can add a configuration line. But here i couldn’t find a setting.

Cheers,
Mika

Are you looking at the raw debug log? There’s quite a lot of detail there.

Hi Jack,

what i’ve meant is that i need more number of stored log instances.
The individual logs are fine. I just need more of them.
Example: i’ve triggered 100 times my Voice Assistant the past week. I would like to see 20-30 past log instances (from 100).

Cheers,
Mika

I support @Hell255 's question. Sometimes the question is not correctly understood by assistant. It would be nice to have more logs stored to understand what exactly was misunderstood allowing us to define more aliases.

I understand that and…

Just ask again.

Literally this is what I do. I don’t care what in the log until I go to troubleshoot and step 1 is recreate the issue… Issue the command I’m troubleshooting and boom there’s the trace. Most helpful because I restart core a LOT as I develop Friday. And the voice log doesn’t survive a restart. Soooo I just started repro first as my normal procedure and never cared how long the log was.

Really it holds up to 100? (I’ve never checked)

Ok, so it seems this feature is clearly missing in home assistant. It would help improve (also in your case Nathan) debugging.

e.g. in all other automations we can add some yaml code to increase the amounts of traces.

Where can i add this feature request? :thinking:
