Is there a persistent feature in Amazon Q developer?

Hello Kenneth,

Currently, Amazon Q developer does not have a built-in functionality to save chat history.

I would suggest either one of the following approach to retain your conversation.

• Manually copy the conversation and save it to a text file.
• Implement a basic logging system to retain the conversation.

I am not sure which programming language you are using but I will give you an example in Python on how you can implement the basic logging function.

1. Leverage Python's built in logging module

   import logging

   logger = logging.getLogger('conversation_logger')

2. Set up the logger to write to a file name of your choice , e.g. conversation.log

   file_handler = logging.FileHandler('conversation.log')

3. Define a function to log each message with a role and content.

   def log_message(role, content): logger.info(f"{role.upper()}: {content}")

4. To use this: Call log_message() after each exchange in your conversation.

If you think that my response answers your question please marked this as accepted answer cheers!
