1. SSH into Aria Automation node and run the below command, Grab the client credentials (client ID and password)
   

   kubectl -n prelude describe configmaps provisioning-config

2. Generate base64 of the credentials
   

    base64-encoded client_id_from_step1:password_from_step_1 

3. Generate a Bearer token:
   

   curl --location --request POST 'https://{{ Aria_automation_URL }}/csp/gateway/am/api/auth/authorize' \
   --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
   --header 'Authorization: Basic {{ Base64_from_step_3 }}' \
   --data-raw 'grant_type=client_credentials'

4. Set logging level for the component provided by support
   

   curl --location --request PUT 'https://{{ Aria_automation_URLl }}/provisioning/api/log-configuration/{{ component_class_name_provided_by_support }}/DEBUG' \
   --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
   --header 'Authorization: Bearer {{ bearer token from Step 3 }}'
