  url: `http://<<your url>>api/log`
});

prefix	prefix to add to all logs, delete if not needed
log Level	Log level to display in the browser console, from: ERROR, WARN, INFO. Defaults to 'WARN' and 'ERROR'

    logger.warn('this is a warning log');
    logger.error('this is an error log');
    logger.flush();

 const logzioShipper = logzioServerLogger.logzioLogger.createLogger({
    token: <<logzio-shipping-token>>,
    host: <<logzio-host>>,
    type: "logzio-client-side",
