## Request Logging
31185
Automatic incoming request logging, is a 2 part process. First, the [`request-logger` hook](api/hooks/request-logger.js) gathers info from the request, and creates a new [`RequestLog` record](api/models/RequestLog.js), making sure to mask anything that may be sensitive, such as passwords. Then, a custom response gathers information from the response, again, scrubbing sensitive data (using the [customToJSON](https://sailsjs.com/documentation/concepts/models-and-orm/model-settings?identity=#customtojson) feature of Sails models) to prevent leaking of password hashes, or anything else that should never be publicly accessible. The [`keepModelsSafe` helper](api/helpers/keep-models-safe.js) and the custom responses (such as [ok](api/responses/ok.js) or [serverError](api/responses/serverError.js)) are responsible for the final leg of request logs.
