Configuring Audit Log

The audit log allows you to see the actions performed in MDM Web App and can be stored in a table or displayed in the server console. It is possible to configure which MDM Web App user actions are logged.

To configure the MDM Web App audit log:

  1. Open the MDM Engine project in ONE Desktop.

  2. Go to GUI Configuration > Auditing.

  3. Select user actions that need to be audited:
