# Audit Logs **Audit log** in BotDistrikt records or logs all the interactions and activities that occur within the chatbot system. It serves as a chronological history of events, actions, and data related to your chatbots’ operations.

### How to Access Audit Logs To access the audit log, navigate to the side panel **Settings → Audit Log**

### Viewing Changes * Hover over **Entity Name** to view the code block of changes made.

* This allows you to inspect exactly what was modified during an update. #### Action Types and JSON Data Deltas #### 1. Action: CREATED The **CREATED** action indicates that a new record has been added to the database. * **Visual Cue:** Fields are highlighted in **Green**. * **Behavior:** Because there is no "previous state" for a new entity, the system displays the entire initial data set as an addition. * **Example:** When a user creates a new `Text` responses under "Responses", all defined attributes like `name` and `is_active` will appear in green to show they are now part of the system.

#### 2. Action: UPDATED The **UPDATED** action records modifications made to an existing record. * **Visual Cue:** **Red Strikethrough** (Old) and **Green Highlight** (New). * **Behavior:** The system performs a "delta" comparison. It shows you exactly what the value was before the change and what it became after the save. * **Example:** If a `name` is changed from `"Hello World!"` to `"Good Morning 🌞"`, the log will display:

#### 3. Action: DELETED The **DELETED** action tracks the removal of a record from the system. * **Visual Cue:** All fields are highlighted in **Red with a Strikethrough**. * **Behavior:** The JSON snapshot represents the "final state" of the data immediately before it was removed. The red formatting indicates that this specific data set is no longer active or reachable. * **Example:** Deleting a `Text` will show the entire object struck through in red, serving as a historical record of what was removed.

### Filtering Logs You can use the **filter function** to refine and search for specific logs based on: * User * Action type * Entity * Date/time range This helps quickly locate relevant events for troubleshooting or audits. **Add filter(s)** to search through specific logs. ### Example An example log entry may show: * A user login event * A deleted card entity * The exact timestamp of when the action occurred ### How to Apply Filters 1. Click the **+ add filter** button.

2. Select category from the first dropdown.

3. Choose your **Operator** (e.g., `contains`, `equals`). 4. Input the **Value** or select it from the provided list/calendar. 5. To remove a filter, click the **trash icon** 🗑️ next to the filter row. #### 1. Filter by ID Filter records based on their unique identifier. * **Operators:** `equals`, `not equals`, `greater than`, `less than`. * **Use Case:** Best for locating a specific log entry if you have the direct ID number.

#### 2. Filter by User Filter logs based on the person who performed the action. * **Operators:** `equals`, `not equals`. * **Use Case:** Auditing the activity of a specific team member or administrator.

#### 3. Filter by Action Filter by the type of action that occurred. * **Available Values:** `CREATED`, `UPDATED`, `DELETED`, `INVITED`, `ACCEPTED`, `LOGIN`, `LOGOUT`.

#### Actions on Entities / Objects Track changes to specific objects within the platform (such as story changes or user access activities). **Use Case:** Finding all instances of a specific behavior, such as seeing who has logged in recently or identifying all deleted entities. * **CREATED**: Logged when a new entity is initially added to the system. The associated JSON will show all initial values in green. * **UPDATED**: Logged whenever an existing entity is modified. The JSON delta will highlight exactly which values were changed. * **DELETED**: Logged when an entity is removed. This provides a final snapshot of the data before deletion. #### 4. Filter by Entity Name Filter based on the name of the object being modified (e.g., a specific response group name). * **Operators:** `equals`, `not equals`, `contains`, `not contains`. * **Use Case:** Searching for all changes related to access management, or if want to search actions done to a specific story (even if you only remember a part of the story name, use "contains").

#### 5. Filter by Entity ID Filter based on the unique ID of the entity itself. * **Operators:** `equals`, `not equals`, `greater than`, `less than`. * **Use Case:** Tracking the entire lifecycle (creation, updates, deletion) of one specific entity e.g. tag, card, story across different points in time.

#### 6. Filter by Timestamp Narrow down logs by a specific date and time. * **Modes:** * **Normal:** Select a specific date from the calendar and a specific time. * **Relative:** (e.g., "Last 1 hour", "Last 7 days"). * **Operators:** `greater than` (after), `less than` (before). * **Use Case:** Investigating incidents that occurred within a specific timeframe.

#### Notes * Logs are displayed in descending chronological order (most recent first). * All actions are recorded automatically and cannot be modified.
