# Log Tracing with Spring Cloud Sleuth This project shows how to implement tracing in a network of Spring Boot applications. This application is a service that's not facing the user (a "downstream" service), meaning that it is accessed by user-facing services so they can provide their functionality. 1. Start this service with `./gradlew bootrun` 1. Start the [downstream service](../sleuth-downstream-service/) with `./gradlew bootrun` 1. Open `http://localhost:8080/customers-with-address/{id}` where IDs from 1-50 are will return a valid HTTP 200 response and other IDs will return an error response. 1. Look into the log files of both services and verify that both contain the same trace id.
