What the Audit Log Captures

Audit entries include:

  • Timestamp
  • User (or System)
  • Event summary

Typical events:

  • Proxy host create/update/delete
  • Access list changes
  • Certificate changes
  • Other administrative operations

Use the audit log to answer: who changed what and when.


Search and Pagination

The audit log now supports server-side filtering and paging.

  • Search box filters by event summary, action, and entity type
  • Results are paginated on the server
  • Default page size: 50
  • URL params are used for state:
    • search: current search text
    • page: current page number

Search resets to page 1 automatically when the query changes.


How to Use It

  1. Open Audit Log.
  2. Enter text in Search audit log... to narrow results.
  3. Use pagination controls to browse older/newer pages.
  4. Share a filtered view by copying the URL.

Example URL:

/audit-log?search=proxy&page=2

Troubleshooting

No results found

Checks:

  1. Clear search text and retry
  2. Ensure there is recent activity in the system
  3. Verify you are on page 1 after changing search terms

Unexpected user shown as System

Some operations are intentionally system-generated and are not linked to a human user ID.
