Oooooooooooo -- Yes I do!
Thank you!

I just need to get it to show show the actual URL/parms being called.

I'm already here now...

@app.before_request

def before_request():

app.logger.info("before_request_hits log" + request.environ['REMOTE_ADDR'] + ")" )

[10:38:07] {/routes.py:56} INFO - before_request_hits log (8.8.8.8)
[10:38:07] {/routes.py:56} INFO - before_request_hits log (8.8.8.8)
[10:38:07] {/routes.py:56} INFO - before_request_hits log (8.8.8.8)

Thank you!
