Audit logs

DX Cloud stores audit logs. Audit logs show different actions triggered by your team while they navigate and use the Cockpit. These actions range from logins to those performing backup operations.

Generally, we keep logs for 30 days. However, for your deployment, you may configure a different duration.

You can select up to the last 7 days for this filter.

Instructions

From Logs > Audit:

View from the Cockpit

audit logs

  1. Select your desired API from the dropdown.

  2. If desired, enter a username to filter on.

  3. Select your desired Date range.

  4. If desired, enter a term to filter on.

  5. Click Apply filters.

    Filter selection persists

    When you Apply filters, the selection persists meaning if you reload the page, you’ll see the same filter selection.

    It also ensures you can share the selection and the recipient sees the same view as you do.

    Example
    https://cockpit.magnolia-platform.com/logs/events?from=2025-03-06T16:25:31.842Z&to=2025-03-06T17:25:31.842Z& (1)
    1 In this case, it shows the filter for event logs for the last hour on the selected date.

Log format

Each audit log provides a timestamp along with other pertinent information. See the Log fields below for more details.
