Summary
Health check logs (
Request starting/Request finishedfor/health) were still appearing in Seq despite theUseSerilogRequestLoggingfilter added in #81. This is because those logs come from ASP.NET Core's built-inMicrosoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.Diagnosticslogger, which fires independently of the Serilog request logging middleware.Fix
Added
.MinimumLevel.Override("Microsoft.AspNetCore", LogEventLevel.Warning)to the Serilog configuration. This suppresses allInformation-level logs from theMicrosoft.AspNetCorenamespace (the verbose "Request starting"/"Request finished" pairs), leavingUseSerilogRequestLoggingas the sole request logger. Since that middleware already drops/healthtoVerbose, health checks are now fully silent.Validation
