Audit trail

The Audit Trail provides a comprehensive record of all changes made within your Efento Cloud Organization. It is accessible only to users with Administrator permissions and helps track modifications across sensors, locations, reports, rules, and user or organization settings. The Audit Trail ensures transparency and accountability, allowing administrators to monitor who made changes, what was changed, and when. To access the Audit Trail, select Settings (the gear icon) from the left-hand menu, then choose Audit Trail.

Audit trail entry details

Each entry in the Audit Trail contains detailed information about a specific action performed within the organization:

• Date – the exact date and time when the action was taken

• User – the individual who performed the action

• Action type – the nature of the change, such as Added, Updated, Removed, Activated, Disabled, Notified, or Expired

• Object – the item affected by the action (e.g., sensor, location, report, rule, or user)

• Parameter changes – the values of the object before and after the modification

To view the complete history of any object, click the history icon () next to its name. This opens a log showing all changes made to the object since its creation, including timestamps for each modification, enabling full traceability and accountability.

You can search and filter the Audit Trail to quickly find relevant entries. The list can be filtered by the user who performed the action (use search bar in the User column), by the type of object (e.g., sensors, locations, reports, rules, or users), or by the action type (Added, Updated, Removed, Activated, Disabled, Notified, or Expired). Additionally, you can define a time range to display only the logs recorded within a specific period, helping you focus on the changes that matter most.
