The default log directory will be similar to this path: ``` C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS ``` 6. If the SharePoint admin has changed the default log path, you can find it by going to **Central Admin > Monitoring > Reporting > Configure diagnostic logging** scroll down to Trace Log - the Path configured here is where your Sharepoint Logs are being stored. 7. Use the ULS Viewer app to monitor the ULS logs. You can use the following filters to see just the output from the custom claims provider. ![nga1563995697459](_images/nga1563995697459.jpg) You can download the ULS Viewer tool from Microsoft here:
