Create an Audit Report

You can use this report to view changes made to the user information, Controller Tenant configuration, and application properties. The Controller Tenant Audit reports on the following attributes:

  • Date and time range
  • ObjectType
  • UserName
  • ObjectName
  • AccountName
  • ApiKeyId (if applicable)
  • Action
  • ApiKeyName (if applicable)
  • ApplicationName

When the appdynamics.controller.audit.session.id.column.enabled feature flag is enabled in the Admin Dashboard, Controller Audit reports include the Session ID Hash field. The field is included in reports generated directly and through Scheduled Reports.

To enable or deactivate this flag for a SaaS Controller, contact Splunk AppDynamics Support.

For an on-premises Controller, sign in to the Administration Console, open Controller Settings, search for appdynamics.controller.audit.session.id.column.enabled, set the value to true to enable or false to deactivate the flag, and click Save.

Attention: You must have Company Admin permissions to view and configure scheduled reports.
