audit-log Audit log Audit log

Every mutating API path writes an audit event. The log is at Audit.

What an event carries

Field Meaning
Action A dotted name, e.g. server.created, settings.updated
Actor Who did it
Target The object acted on
Detail A short human-readable note
Time When

What is recorded

Creation, modification and deletion across the product: servers and enrolments, keys and assignments, workflow and step changes, runs triggered, monitors and channels, secret groups and reveals, console sessions opened, settings and member changes, licence installs.

Reads are not recorded, with one deliberate exception: revealing a secret writes an event, because reading that particular thing is an act rather than a lookup.

What is not recorded

  • Sign-ins and sign-out.
  • Anything inside a console session.
  • Step output. That lives in the run log, kept under the workflow retention setting rather than with the audit log.

Retention

Audit events are not swept by the workflow log retention setting that setting governs run logs only. Audit history stays until the instance does.

:::warning It is a log, not a control The audit log tells you what happened. It does not restrict what can happen, and an admin can do anything an admin can do. Use roles for restriction and the log for accountability. :::

Getting events out

GET /api/audit returns recent events as JSON and accepts a limit. There is no streaming or push export; if you need events in a SIEM, poll that endpoint.
