Uses

Liquibase log messages represent the records of events that occur when running commands. With log messages, you can typically find the reason for errors or exceptions and troubleshoot a problem. However, before Liquibase sends all the information to STDERR or the log file, you can prevent sensitive data from being logged in the verbose log messages by using the filter-log-messages parameter.

You can also use the filter-log-messages parameter along with the log-level parameter, which sets the amount of messages generated when running Liquibase commands.

Although, there may be cases when you need to set the filter-log-messages parameter to false:

• If you are trying to debug something related to a password or key and the filtered log messages can be helpful

• If you want to improve performance without checking log message strings. For example, when you use the FINE logging or other times when there are a lot of log messages.
