Tips & Best Practices

  • Review weekly — Spot unusual activity early.
  • Export monthly — Keep audit records for compliance requirements.
  • Investigate failed logins — Repeated failures may indicate unauthorized access attempts.
  • Track role changes — Ensure permission changes are authorized.

Troubleshooting

Can't find a specific event

  • Broaden your date range.
  • Try different filter combinations.
  • Some routine events may not be logged to reduce noise.

Audit log seems incomplete

  • Very old entries may be archived (depending on retention policy).
  • Some system-level events are only visible to Super Admins.
