Portal audit log
The Audit log section stores the history of all the activities related to the portal. It allows the portal admin to search and find the portal-level and item-level changes made by users in a portal. To view your audit log, click the More options button ( ) > Portal administration > Audit log.
You can get the following details of events recorded as part of your portal from the audit log:
- Audit ID: This is a unique ID generated automatically by the system for every event that's recorded as part of the portal history.
- Timestamp: The exact time when a specific action happened or was performed.
- Actor: The user who performed the action.

- Event category: Category name for a set of events that you can use to filter down.
- Platform: The device or OS from which the event was recorded.
- IP: The IP address from which the event was recorded.
- Batch ID: This is a unique ID generated automatically by the system for a group of events that are related to each other. Unlike Audit ID, the Batch ID of these events will be the same for reference purposes.
