Expected behavior
I would expect that by setting the flow log destination to a separate file, all the log items would go there
occ config:app:set workflowengine logfile --value=/path/to/your/flow.log
Actual behavior
Part of the logs still go into nextcloud.log

Log in nextcloud.log

Differences:
nextcloud.log has more details in the message, but no extra details
Flow.log has less details in the message but extra fields
Flow activation: rules were requested for operation Block access to a file vs
Flow activation: rules were requested and then {“class”:“OCA\FilesAccessControl\Operation”,“name”:“Block access to a file”}

Is it useful to keep logging in two different places?
Thanks a lot for your strong solution, and for your hard work.
