About Audit Logs

Audit Logs track the following actions by default:

  • All changes to data (additions, modifications and deletions)
  • Customizations to the platform
Optionally, an Enhanced Security Audit can be enabled. This increases the audit scope to log these additional actions:
  • All record access attempts
  • Unsuccessful or unauthorized access attempts
