# Audit log

The application audit log lets you review user actions taken in Administration, Connect, Analyze, and Manage. To view the audit log, you must have the Administration View Audit permission.

NOTE: Simple view events, such as a user viewing a group, a workbook, a dataset, are not audited.

For each audit event, you can review the following.

- The EVENT TIME of the action that occurred. Events viewable in the audit log do not expire.

- The USER NAME of the user who performed the action.

- The EVENT, which corresponds to the action taken. Events include, but are not limited to, Assign, Cancel Collection, Delete, Scan, or View.

- The object TYPE of the action. Types include, but are not limited to Cluster, Hold, or Tag.

- The CONTEXT of the action. The context corresponds to the component, such as Administration, Connect, Analyze, or the name of the workspace against which the action was taken.

- The DETAILS of the action.

You can filter and sort the audit log by date, by event, by type, and by user.

- To filter the audit log by date, define the start (From) and end (To) dates for the desired time frame to view.

  Click the calendar next to the From and To fields to select the dates.

  - To view information for all time, leave both date fields blank.

  - To view information from a specific date to today, define a From date and leave the To date blank.

  - To view information from the beginning to a specific date, leave the From date blank and define a To date.

- To filter the audit log by the tracked event, click the desired event from the EVENT dropdown list.

- To filter the audit log by the tracked object type, click the desired object from the TYPE dropdown list.

- To filter the audit log by a specific user, type the email address, user name, first name, or last name of the desired user in the Find User field. As you type, users that have an email address, user name, first or last name that starts with what you have typed display as a dropdown list. Click the desired user.

- To sort the audit log, click the EVENT DATE, USER NAME, EVENT, or TYPE column header.

Once you have filtered the audit log to show what you are interested in, you can export the results to a CSV file. Click the Export to CSV icon () to export the current audit log.
