Debug logs does'nt appear on apex trigger

Question

I am trying to debug below trigger:

trigger SendEmailToHiringManger on SFDC_Job_Opening__c (after insert, after update) {

    list<SFDC_Job_Opening__c> i = [select id,Hiring_Manager__c,Name from SFDC_Job_Opening__c where id=:trigger.newMap.keySet()];

    system.debug('Name is'+ i.get(0).Hiring_Manager__c);

}

I have created a user trace flag in debug logs. I am expecting this trigger to execute when I edit and save a record of object SFDC_Job_Opening__c. However, I do not see the debug logs displayed in the debug log list. What is the reason for that? Is my trigger executing?

Answer 1

When you use the Change Log Levels section in the developer console, you are essentially creating TraceFlag records. See Customize Your Trace Flags and Debug Levels in the Developer Console

The relevant part from the TraceFlag documentation:

LogType

When you open the Developer Console, it sets a DEVELOPER_LOG trace flag to log your activities. USER_DEBUG trace flags cause logging of an individual user’s activities. CLASS_TRACING trace flags override logging levels for Apex classes and triggers, but don’t generate logs.

That last part that I've made bold is the important part. A class/trigger LogType that the "Class and Trigger Trace Overrides" section creates won't cause the logging to be captured. It will just change the level that gets collected for those individual classes and triggers.

Instead you need to either create a "General Trace Settings for You" or a "User Tracing for All Users" entry with an Expiration in the future.

Can you chnage your query like this and try,

select id,Hiring_Manager__c,Name from SFDC_Job_Opening__c 
 where id IN:trigger.newMap.keySet()

Answer 3

Maybe the problem is that the event is not invoked, could you try something like this:

 trigger SendEmailToHiringManger on SFDC_Job_Opening__c (after insert, after update) {

    for( SFDC_Job_Opening__c s : Trigger.new())
    {

        system.debug('Name is'+ s.Hiring_Manager__c);

    }
 }
