Xcode: View Console History After Cleared?

How can I see the Xcode console history? I accidentally cleared it by running the application again and am wondering if I can get back what was cleared.

Xcode 11:

In the Navigator, press the "Report navigator" button (the speech bubble), then click on your previous run sessions. You can see all your previous console logs.

Xcode console output is logged in the system log. You can search the system log from the console with grep:

# view last 2000 lines of the system log
sudo tail -n2000 /private/var/log/system.log

# search system log for YourApp
sudo grep YourApp /private/var/log/system.log

# watch the system log as it's being written and filter for YourApp
sudo tail -f /private/var/log/system.log | grep YourApp
