# Implementing Structured Logging using SeriLog in ASP.NET Core 7.0 Web API
Serilog is a popular structured logging library for .NET applications. It's easy to set up, feature-rich, and supports a wide variety of "sinks" - outputs where your logs can be sent.
## Serilog Sinks
A sink in Serilog is a destination where your log events are sent. There are sinks for various outputs like the console, files, databases, and even other logging platforms like Seq
For more information about each sink and how to use them, please refer to the official documentation of the relevant nuget package.
## Getting Started
To get started with this ASP.NET Core web API project, you will need the following:
- Visual Studio 2022 or any similar IDE that supports ASP.NET Core development
- ASP.NET Core 7 SDK
Here are the steps to follow:
1. Install Visual Studio 2022 or any similar IDE that supports ASP.NET Core development.
2. Install the latest version of the ASP.NET Core 7 SDK from [here](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/7.0).
3. Clone the project from GitHub or download the ZIP file and extract it to your local machine.
4. Open the project in Visual Studio or your preferred IDE.
5. Build the project by clicking on the "Build" button or by using the keyboard shortcut `Ctrl+Shift+B`.
6. Run the project by clicking on the "Run" button or by using the keyboard shortcut `Ctrl+F5`.
7. Test the API endpoints by sending HTTP requests to the appropriate URLs.
That's it! You should now be able to use this ASP.NET Core web API project with Structured Logging using SeriLog. If you encounter any issues or have any questions, please create an issue or [reach out to me](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bilalmehrban/).
