22.3 Utilizing Logs and Reports
Review application logs and reports to help identify problematic pages.
The Oracle APEX engine records activity logs to capture usage and performance data. This information displays in various reports. If a particular page is accessed extensively or a page renders slowly then these reports can help you identify problematic pages.
