1 min read

Audit logs show the interaction between MIDA and the MI Core.

You can access the audit logs via the MIDA interface. The Permission Audit Log:findAll is required for access.

The audit logs show the following columns:

Column	Description
User	The login name of the user who performed this action.
Method	GET: Request data from the MI Core POST: MIDA registrations and e.g. device actions executed by MIDA and sent to MI Core. Example: Create single devices, deregister, wake up,… PUT: Request to add an object to the MI Core. DELETE: request to remove an object from the MI Core PATCH: Save changes in the MIDA database, e.g. changes to users or roles.
Permission	The permission that was used to perform an action. Example: devices:register = A device was newly created in MIDA. The „register“ permission of the „devices“ group was used.
Input	More details on the action performed.
Exec status	SUCCESS: Successfully handed over to MI Core FAILED: The command/action has failed: Could not be passed to MI Core. Was rejected by the MI Core. Repeat the action and check the parameters.
Date	Time of the command execution (format: YYYY-MM-DD). Important: Here the time of the MIDA server is used
Duration	Duration for the execution of the command in milliseconds

The search field at the top can be used to search for any text occurring in the logs.

Examples

devices:register,
devices:retire>>
When searching for :register, all new device installations are displayed.
MIDA Username
Devices username
E-mail address
Devices UUID,
This can be used to open the device directly from the following link:
<MIDA-URL> /#/devices/<uuid>
A date or time in the format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS

The audit log contains all log entries that were performed within the mandate label.

This means:

The MIDA SuperAdmin, which uses the All-Smartphones label, only sees the entries in the audit logs that were performed under the All-Smartphones label, i.e. mainly administrative actions.

A MIDA Admin who has only assigned a client label will only see the entries for his client. No other entries.

A user of the role Support, who has assigned many different labels, always sees the audit logs belonging to this currently selected client when selecting the client label.

There is no user who can see all logs of all clients (client label). If this is desired, a user must be created who is assigned all client labels and the label „All-Smartphones“ in MIDA.

The MIDA Audit Logs shows the AppName for entries with Apps since 2.6.0.
