Note

By default, the Audit log is only visible for signed-in Admin users (not end-users). However, it is now possible to create Custom Roles to grant Audit Log access also for non-admin users. For more info about custom roles, check our Support Article

Filtering the data

There are four filters that can be used either together or separately:

Actor = the signed-in user who has performed action(s) in the Backup portal

Event = action(s) taken, e.g. Emails were accessed or SharePoint restore was initiated. Multiple event types can be selected at a time.

Target user = user affected by the action, e.g. the user whose emails were accessed

Time range = time period when the action(s) were taken: last week / last month / last year / custom

Only relevant users / actions are displayed under the filters; e.g. list of users who have performed actions during the selected time range are listed under 'Actor' filter, and only actions that have taken place are listed under 'Event' filter. If, for example, a certain user is not visible under 'Actor' filter, the user has not taken any action in the Backup portal.

You can clear all filters by clicking the '' icon.

Displaying the results

All user actions taking place in Backup portal are listed in Audit log, apart from the following exceptions:

  • Signed-in user accessing his/her own OneDrive or Mail folders
  • Signed-in Admin user browsing shared organization data (SharePoint & Teams)

However, if user restores or downloads his/her own data, or Admin user restores or downloads shared organization data, these actions are visible in Audit log.
