Gathering Logs from Chromebook Students
Perform these steps on the student Chromebook while logged in as the student experiencing the issue:
- Click on the LanSchool Air icon in the Taskbar to open the chat box.
- Click on the green, yellow or red status light at the bottom left corner of the chat box
- Select Download Logs.
- Save the encrypted logs.
- Once the logs are saved, email the logs either to your teacher email or tech email.
- Then email logs to support@lanschoolair.com
When saving the logs, keep in mind you are logged into the student's account. We recommend emailing the logs to yourself first, then emailing them to LanSchool Air Support so you do not use the student's email to contact Support.
