Introduction

The Platform Audit page is a workspace-wide activity log surfaced under Settings → Audit. It gives Admins a central place to review who is doing what across the platform, without needing to call the API or correlate the per-entity history tabs scattered across datastores, checks, and operations.

What gets recorded

Every state-changing action taken against a tracked entity produces an audit record. Records include:

  • User: who performed the action (or the Qualytics system account for platform-driven changes).
  • Action: the verb performed (create, update, delete, activate, archive, and so on).
  • Entity: the type and ID of the affected object: datastore, container, check, anomaly, operation, schedule, user, team, integration, token, and others.
  • Timestamp: the moment the action was issued, in UTC, displayed in your local timezone.

Some specialized records, such as data-masking audit entries, are surfaced inline with the same row layout and open a dedicated side panel when clicked.

Existing data, new view

The audit log surfaces activity that the platform was already recording for every entity. The same history has been available on the per-entity history tabs across datastores, checks, operations, and other entities. The Audit page adds a workspace-wide UI on top of that history, plus aggregated metrics that power the summary cards and chart.

Why it exists

Three needs drove the Platform Audit page:

  1. Adoption tracking: knowing which users have taken actions on the platform during rollout to new business teams.
  2. Governance and change management: answering "who changed this?" and "what changed during this window?" without leaving the platform.
  3. Operational visibility: spotting unusual spikes in delete actions, automated activity, or activity coming from a specific actor.

How the page is organized

The page is a single scrollable view with four areas, stacked top to bottom:

Area Purpose
Filter bar Pick a report date, timeframe, optional filters, and trigger the CSV export.
Summary cards Headline metrics for the selected timeframe (active users, total actions, most active user, top category) plus the activity chart.
Activity log Paginated day-grouped list of individual actions.
Pagination controls Page size and next/previous navigation, mirrored at the top and bottom of the log.

Each area is documented in its own page in the How-tos section so you can jump directly to what you need.
