Save logs in Skype for Business Web App

An error log is an ongoing record of the internal operations of a computer. Usually, logging levels are set by your support team when your software is installed and most of the time, these options don't need to be changed. But occasionally you may be asked to send an error log to help analyze a problem in Skype for Business Web App or Windows. Then you'll need to know how to change the settings and collect error information.
