description: Nx Cloud introduces a structured table view for CI logs, enhancing monorepo task tracking and visibility.

Whenever we talk about Nx Cloud, speed is often a major focus—and for good reason. However, Nx Cloud isn't just about speed. Similar to Nx itself, it's about making work within monorepos more pleasant and efficient. A key part of that is continuously **optimizing developer ergonomics**.
|
|
|
|
Structuring your log output is one example. In a polyrepo setup, this isn't a big deal since you typically run tasks for a single project. However, in a monorepo setup, you might be running hundreds of tasks in parallel across multiple projects. **Quickly finding a failed task in this context can be challenging.**

## New Table Log View
|
|
|
|
Today, we released an update that improves how logs are displayed on your CI provider when using Nx Cloud. Instead of streaming all logs directly into your CI provider's pipeline, **we now render a structured table view**. This table shows all tasks, their status (success or failure), timing, and whether they had a cache hit or miss.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the end of the log output, you'll also see aggregated stats about executed tasks, cache hits, and a link to the Nx Cloud dashboard with full details of the run.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Revert to the Old Behavior
|
|
|
|
If you prefer the previous log view in your CI, you can opt-out of the new table view. Simply go to your Nx Cloud workspace settings and enable the "Display live terminal outputs in CI pipeline log" option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Not Using Nx Cloud Yet?
|
|
|
|
If you're not on Nx Cloud yet, you can **connect your Nx workspace** by running:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
npx nx connect
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command will guide you through the setup. We recently introduced a [new Hobby plan](/pricing), which lets you experiment with all the Nx Cloud features for free. This is a great way to see if it's a good fit for your team.
