Logging full request and response bodies can expose credentials or personal data while still failing to capture the context needed for support.

Checks to make

Log correlation IDs, status, timing, endpoint, and safe error categories. Redact authorization headers and sensitive fields, limit access and retention, and test redaction with representative payloads before enabling verbose diagnostics.
