View audit logs (Early Access)
Audit Logs is an Early Access feature that's currently only available in AGS Private Cloud.
Overview
The audit logs are essential tools for AccelByte Gaming Services (AGS) administrators to track important changes. They are extremely useful when you need to detect a problem efficiently and react accordingly. By reviewing audit logs, systems administrators can track user activity, and security teams can investigate breaches and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

- Request Time: filters the search by when a request was made. You can define the time range of the search by setting the start and end date and time in UTC format. The maximum period of time you can search for is 30 days.
- General filters:
- Namespace: limits the search to a specific namespace. If left blank, the logs returned by your search will come from every namespace you have access to.

- Action name: limits the search to a specific action name. To use this filter, you must select the category first and the action name will show option accordingly.
- Object Type: limits the search to a specific object type. To use this filter, you must select the category first and the object type will show option accordingly.
- Object Identifier: filters the search by unique identifier of the resource affected by the event captured in this log activity. To use this filter, you must select the category first and type the Object ID.
- Actor Type: filters the search by actor. There are three options:
- All: filters the list to show logs performed by users and application.
- User: filters logs only performed by users.
