Audit logs Optional feature

Records important user operations and system events. You can view it from global nav > Workspace settings > Audit logs, and from each resource's Change logs. Only a Workspace Owner can view it (Workspace permissions).

TIP

This is an optional feature. Depending on your contract, it might not be available.

Information shown on screen

The audit log screen has the following columns.

ColumnContent
TimeWhen the operation occurred
StatusSuccess / Error / Deny

LogThe operation described in natural-language text, including the actor (user, API key, and so on) and the target resource
  • Log text is recorded in English.
  • Email addresses are partially masked.
  • Content such as notebook body text isn't recorded. Metadata such as resource IDs and names is recorded.
  1. Open global nav > Workspace settings > Audit logs.
  2. In the search field, choose a user, group, or API key, or enter a keyword.
  3. Select Search.
  • There's no filtering by category or operation type.
  • Keywords do a partial match against the log text. Prefix a word with - to exclude logs containing it.
  • Select Refresh logs to get the latest list.

Relationship with change logs

You can view workspace-wide logs from Audit logs. Resource-scoped logs are available from the paths in the following table as Change logs (on some screens, Logs or History).

PathScope
Workspace settings > General > Change logsChanges to the workspace itself
Workspace settings > Users > Change logsChanges related to users and invitations
Workspace settings > Groups > group edit screen > Change logsChanges to that group
Workspace settings > Teamspaces > teamspace edit screen > Change logsChanges to that teamspace
Workspace settings > API Keys > Change logsAPI key management operations
Workspace settings > Personal Access Tokens > Change logsPAT management operations
Workspace settings > Connections > permission settings screen > Change logsPermission changes for that connection
Notebook Share > Public link > Change logsChanges to that public link
Notebook Share > additional permissions Change logsChanges to that notebook's additional permissions
Report Report settings > LogsChanges to that report

Using an API key or PAT (token use) is included in the workspace-wide audit log. It's excluded from each key's management Change logs.
