Question

Is there a way to change the tables that logback writes its data to using the dbAppender, It has three default tables that must be created before using dbAppender, but I want to customise it to write to one table of my choosing. Something similar to Log4J where I can specify the SQL that gets executed when inserting the log to the database.

You need to implement ch.qos.logback.classic.db.names.DBNameResolver and use it in the configuration:

<appender name="DB" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.db.DBAppender">
  <dbNameResolver class="com.example.MyDBNameResolver"/>
  <!-- ... -->
</appender>
