1. Ensure `person` is being _detected_. A `person` will automatically be scanned by Frigate for a face. Any detected faces will appear in the Recent Recognitions tab in the Frigate UI's Face Library.
1. Enable debug logs to see exactly what Frigate is doing.
- Enable debug logs for face recognition by adding `frigate.data_processing.real_time.face: debug` to your `logger` configuration Restart Frigate after this change.
```yaml
logger:
default: info
logs:

- These logs report where the pipeline stopped for each `person` object, such as no face being found within the person's bounding box, the detected face being smaller than `min_area`, or a face being recognized but scoring too low.
- If you see no face-related messages at all, also add `frigate.embeddings.maintainer: debug` to confirm that the face processor was created at startup and that `person` updates are reaching it.

- Check your `detect` stream resolution and ensure it is sufficiently high enough to capture face details on `person` objects.
