# Sidekiq debugging

## Log arguments to Sidekiq jobs

If you want to see what arguments are being passed to Sidekiq jobs you can set

the `SIDEKIQ_LOG_ARGUMENTS` [environment variable](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/environment-variables.html) to `1` (true).

Example:

```

gitlab_rails['env'] = {"SIDEKIQ_LOG_ARGUMENTS" => "1"}

```

Please note: It is not recommend to enable this setting in production because some

Sidekiq jobs (such as sending a password reset email) take secret arguments (for

example the password reset token).

When using [Sidekiq JSON logging](../administration/logs.md#sidekiqlog),
arguments logs are limited to a maximum size of 10 kilobytes of text;
any arguments after this limit will be discarded and replaced with a
single argument containing the string `"..."`.
