 ### Logging
 
-- `SAS_LOG_LEVEL`: the lowest priority log level to surface, defaults to `info`. Tip: set to `http`
+- `SAS_LOG_LEVEL`: The lowest priority log level to surface, defaults to `info`. Tip: set to `http`
     to see all HTTP requests.
-- `SAS_LOG_JSON`: wether or not to have logs formatted as JSON, defaults to `false`.
+- `SAS_LOG_JSON`:Whether or not to have logs formatted as JSON, defaults to `false`.
     Useful when using `stdout` to programmatically process Sidecar log data.
-- `SAS_LOG_FILTER_RPC`: wether or not to filter polkadot-js API-WS RPC logging, defaults to `false`.
-- `SAS_LOG_STRIP_ANSI`: wether or not to strip ANSI characters from logs, defaults
+- `SAS_LOG_FILTER_RPC`: Whether or not to filter polkadot-js API-WS RPC logging, defaults to `false`.
+- `SAS_LOG_STRIP_ANSI`: Whether or not to strip ANSI characters from logs, defaults
     to `false`. Useful when logging RPC calls with JSON written to transports.
+- `SAS_LOG_WRITE`: Whether or not to write logs to a log file. Default is set to `false`. Accepts a boolean value. The log files will be written as `logs.log`. **NOTE**: Tt will only log what is available depending on what `SAS_LOG_LEVEL` is set to.
+- `SAS_LOG_WRITE_PATH`: Specifies the path to write the log files. Default will be where the package is installed.
+- `SAS_LOG_WRITE_MAX_FILE_SIZE`: Specifies in bytes what the max file size for the written log files should be. Default is `5242880` (5MB).
+- `SAS_LOG_WRITE_MAX_FILES`: Specifies how many files can be written. Default is 5.
