I am trying to use Robot Framework/AppiumLibrary with SauceLabs. I keep getting a “SessionNotCreatedException: Message: Could not find API key” response. I am passing the call to Open Application via the testobject\_api\_key parameter, so I’m not sure why the request is resulting in an error.

I could probably figure out what is going wrong if I could see the Appium server logs. I do a similar thing with Selenium by specifying the “service\_log\_path” argument to the Open Browser command. But I don’t see a similar argument with the Open Application command. Is there a way to get the Appium logs so I can troubleshoot this?

Hi,  
I’ve found you post and thought it will be good idea to ask you if you have some manual how to properly set up everything in Robot + appium + sauce labs. Just to make it work
