Audit service🔗
The Audit API allows you to access comprehensive audit logs over a period of time. These logs provide detailed information about various actions performed within the Data Productivity Cloud platform, including who performed the action, when it was performed, and other relevant details. This is crucial for maintaining security, compliance, and operational oversight.
The audit logs cover a 90-day rolling period. Events older than 90 days are automatically purged from the logs.
This guide will walk you through the steps to retrieve audit logs using the Audit API.
The event types currently supported by the API are listed below. New event types are constantly being added as more areas of the Data Productivity Cloud are integrated with the Audit API. This list will be updated regularly with the new event types.
Prerequisites🔗
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
- A Data Productivity Cloud account.
- Valid API credentials for Matillion API access.
