Audit Logging Events Reference

      +
      Audit Logging provides tools for administrators to track operational irregularities and to support regulatory and security compliance standards, such as HIPAA and SOC-2. Below is a list of possible Audit Events.

      About Audit Events

      You can use audit events to track and provide context on user activity within your application.

      Table 1. Events table field description

      Field Name

      Description

      ID

      A unique number used to distinguish between Audit Events. You can use the value to specify which events will be present or written to your audit logs, either globally or on a database level.

      Name

      A short descriptive name, this will be outputted as a field in the audit log.

      Description

      A longer name, this is will be outputted as a field in the audit log.

      DefaultEnabled

      If true, the given Audit Event is enabled by default.

      Filterable

      If true, the given audit event can be disabled.

      EventScope

      The scope of the event. This can be Global or Database. You can configure global scope events via the bootstrap config, and database events via the Admin REST API.

      EventType

      The type of action performed by the event. This can be user, admin, or data.

      MandatoryFields

      Fields that are always present in a given Audit Event.

      OptionalFields

      May or may not be present in a given Audit Event.

      Audit Event Types

      Audit Events can be one of the following types:

      • Admin - Events that track administrative and configuration changes.

      • Data - Events that track attempts to access and change data.

      • User - Events that track end-user operations.

      Audit Event Scopes

      Audit events have scope, this affects how they can be configured. The audit events scopes are:

      • Database - These events are specific to a database such as AuditIDDocumentUpdate 55002, and can only be enabled/disabled at the database configuration level. Database level audit events are segregated into per Sync Gateway database specific audit logs.

      • Global - These events are considered global such as AuditIDSyncGatewayStartup 53260, and have to be enabled/disabled in the bootstrap config.
