Examen du journal d’audit de votre organisation

Accessing the audit log

The audit log lists events triggered by activities that affect your organization within the current month and previous six months. Only owners can access an organization's audit log.

By default, only events from the past three months are displayed. To view older events, you must specify a date range with the created parameter. For more information, see "Understanding the search syntax."

In the upper-right corner of GitHub Enterprise Server, select your profile photo, then click Your organizations.
Next to the organization, click Settings.
In the "Archives" section of the sidebar, click Logs, then click Audit log.

Searching the audit log

The name for each audit log entry is composed of a category of events, followed by an operation type. For example, the repo.create entry refers to the create operation on the repo category.

Each audit log entry shows applicable information about an event, such as:

The enterprise or organization an action was performed in
The user (actor) who performed the action
The user affected by the action
Which repository an action was performed in
The action that was performed
Which country the action took place in
The date and time the action occurred

Note that you cannot search for entries using text. You can, however, construct search queries using a variety of filters. Many operators used when querying the log, such as -, >, or <, match the same format as searching across GitHub Enterprise Server. For more information, see "About searching on GitHub."

Search based on operation

Use the operation qualifier to limit actions to specific types of operations. For example:

operation:access finds all events where a resource was accessed.
operation:authentication finds all events where an authentication event was performed.
operation:create finds all events where a resource was created.
operation:modify finds all events where an existing resource was modified.
operation:remove finds all events where an existing resource was removed.
operation:restore finds all events where an existing resource was restored.
operation:transfer finds all events where an existing resource was transferred.

Search based on repository

Use the repo qualifier to limit actions to a specific repository. For example:

repo:"my-org/our-repo" finds all events that occurred for the our-repo repository in the my-org organization.
repo:"my-org/our-repo" repo:"my-org/another-repo" finds all events that occurred for both the our-repo and another-repo repositories in the my-org organization.
-repo:"my-org/not-this-repo" excludes all events that occurred for the not-this-repo repository in the my-org organization.

Note that you must include the account name within the repo qualifier and put it in quotes or escape the / with a \; searching for just repo:our-repo or repo:my-org/our-repo will not work.

Search based on the user

The actor qualifier can scope events based on who performed the action. For example:

actor:octocat finds all events performed by octocat.
actor:octocat actor:hubot finds all events performed by octocat or hubot.
-actor:hubot excludes all events performed by hubot.

Note that you can only use a GitHub Enterprise Server username, not an individual's real name.

Search based on the action performed

To search for specific events, use the action qualifier in your query. Actions listed in the audit log are grouped in different categories. For the full list of events in each category, see "Audit log events for your organization."

You can search for specific sets of actions using these terms. For example:

action:team finds all events grouped within the team category.
-action:hook excludes all events in the webhook category.

Each category has a set of associated actions that you can filter on. For example:

action:team.create finds all events where a team was created.
-action:hook.events_changed excludes all events where the events on a webhook have been altered.

Search based on time of action

Use the created qualifier to filter events in the audit log based on when they occurred. Date formatting must follow the ISO8601 standard, which is YYYY-MM-DD (year-month-day). You can also add optional time information THH:MM:SS+00:00 after the date, to search by the hour, minute, and second. That's T, followed by HH:MM:SS (hour-minutes-seconds), and a UTC offset (+00:00).

When you search for a date, you can use greater than, less than, and range qualifiers to further filter results. For more information, see "Understanding the search syntax."

For example:

created:2014-07-08 finds all events that occurred on July 8th, 2014.
created:>=2014-07-08 finds all events that occurred on or after July 8th, 2014.
created:<=2014-07-08 finds all events that occurred on or before July 8th, 2014.
created:2014-07-01..2014-07-31 finds all events that occurred in the month of July 2014.

Note: The audit log contains data for the current month and every day of the previous six months.

Search based on location

Using the qualifier country, you can filter events in the audit log based on the originating country. You can use a country's two-letter short code or its full name. Keep in mind that countries with spaces in their name will need to be wrapped in quotation marks. For example:

country:de finds all events that occurred in Germany.
country:Mexico finds all events that occurred in Mexico.
country:"United States" all finds events that occurred in the United States.

Using the audit log API

You can interact with the audit log using the GraphQL API.

To ensure your intellectual property is secure, and you maintain compliance for your organization, you can use the audit log GraphQL API to keep copies of your audit log data and monitor:

Access to your organization or repository settings
Changes in permissions
Added or removed users in an organization, repository, or team
Users being promoted to admin
Changes to permissions of a GitHub App

The GraphQL response can include data for up to 90 to 120 days.

For example, you can make a GraphQL request to see all the new organization members added to your organization. For more information, see the "Interfaces."
