# Enable Debug Mode

### Debug Mode

Runners can be started in debug mode, in which case we will keep them running for 12 hours. During this time you can connect to the runner via SSH or VNC.

#### Integration Debug Mode

Debug mode can be enabled for a whole integration. Then every runner of that integration will be started in debug mode. To enable debug mode for the whole integration:

1. Navigate to the details page of your integration.
2. Click on **(**•••**)** **More** and **Change Settings**.
3. Toggle the **Debug mode** setting.

To disable debug mode simply follow the steps above again and toggle the **Debug mode** setting off.

#### Runner Debug Mode

Debug mode can be enabled for a single runner. To enable debug mode for a runner:

1. Navigate to the details page of your subscription.
2. Select the tab of **Active Runners**.
3. Click on the **(**•••**)** **More** of the runner you would like to debug and then on **Enable Debug Mode**.

To disable debug mode simply click on **(**•••**)** **More** of the runner currently in debug mode and then **Disable Debug Mode**.

6. Connecting via VNC
   1. Connect to your runner with your preferred VNC application using the address and credentials provided in the wizard.
