An audit log describes audit information for events generated on Citrix Analytics. They can be system events such as errors, or an audit trail of configuration actions performed by the Citrix Analytics administrator.

Whenever a configuration is added, deleted, or updated, the event information is written to the audit log. This information is about what was modified, the time when it was modified, and who modified it.

You can view audit log information for the last three months.
