On this page

HyoNova keeps an audit log of important administrative changes in your company: invitations, role changes, custom roles, guest decisions, addresses and domains, the company profile and more. Owners and admins can read it in Company administration. Every entry records when a change happened, what the action was, which record it touched and who made it.

Company administration › Company › Audit log.

Who can see the audit log#

Owners and admins. Managers, employees and restricted members do not see the Audit log page. Members with a custom role see it only if their role includes permission to read the audit log.

Open the audit log#

  1. Open Company administration. In the company workspace sidebar, select Company administration.
  2. Go to Company › Audit log. In the sub-navigation, under Company, choose Audit log. The page lead reads Who changed what in your company.

Read the log#

The newest changes come first, 25 at a time. Select Load more to see older entries. When nothing has been recorded yet, the page shows No audit events yet.

ColumnWhat it shows
WhenThe date and time of the change
ActionThe technical name of the action, for example a role change or a revoked guest link (see the examples below)
ResourceThe record that changed, such as a member, a role, a domain or a guest link
ByThe member who made the change, or "—" when there is no name to show

Filter by action#

Type the start of an action name in Filter by action. The list then shows only actions that begin with what you typed. For example:

  • member. — invitations, role changes and removals.
  • role. — custom roles created, edited or deleted.
  • world.guest — guest links, guest policy and guest visit decisions.
  • domain. — custom domains added, verified or removed.

Clear the field to see every action again. There is no date filter.

How the audit log works#

  • Recorded on the server. Entries are written by HyoNova's servers together with the change itself, not by your browser.
  • Append-only and read-only. Entries cannot be edited or deleted after they are written — not by your company and not on this page.
  • Secrets removed. Passwords, tokens, secrets, cookies and anti-forgery tokens are never stored in the log.
  • More than the screen shows. Each entry also keeps the relevant before and after values, a reason where one is given, and the request reference that the product shows with errors. These details are not shown on the page; if you need them for a past change, contact HyoNova through Get help.
  • Platform changes too. Changes the HyoNova platform team makes to your company — for example to your plan — are recorded in the same log.

  • The audit entry for a change is written in the same database transaction as the change itself, and the database rejects any update or deletion of an audit entry.
  • Viewing the log needs the audit.read permission, which the Owner and Admin roles hold.
  • Examples of action names you will see in the Action column:
    • Members: member.invite, member.invitation_regenerated, member.invitation_revoked, member.invitation_email_retried, member.invitation_link_copied, member.invitation_accepted, member.role_changed, member.removed
