Table of contents

Configuration

Rules

Go to Settings / Technical / Audit / Rules to subscribe rules. A rule defines which operations to log for a given data model.

Cleanup

A scheduled action exists to delete logs older than 6 months (180 days) automatically but is not enabled by default. To activate it and/or change the delay, go to the Configuration / Technical / Automation / Scheduled Actions menu and edit the Auto-vacuum audit logs entry:

In case you’re having trouble with the amount of records to delete per run, you can pass the amount of records to delete for one model per run as the second parameter, the default is to delete all records in one go.

Security / Policy

You need to be aware that logging can contain sensitive data. With raw HTTP logs, there not much to do about that, but for ORM logging, the module blacklists all fields called password. If you really need to audit that (having plain passwords laying around is a policy violation basically everywhere), rename your field or create a related field used for input.

Usage

Check logs in the Settings / Technical / Audit / Logs menu. You can group them by user sessions, date, data model or HTTP requests:

Known issues / Roadmap

  • Log only operations triggered by some users. Currently it logs all users.

  • Logging read operations does not work on all data models. Need investigation.
