Audit Logs
Last updated: 2026-06-26
Audit logs give you a chronological record of significant actions taken within a selected team — by you, your teammates, or the system. They answer the question: “Who did what, and when?”
What Gets Logged
Audit logs capture actions across all areas of your account:
| Area | Examples |
|---|---|
| Incidents | Created, updated, resolved, archived |
| Monitors | Added, paused, deleted, settings changed |
| Status pages | Settings changed, domain updated, component added/removed |
| Team | Member invited, role changed, member removed |
| Notifications | Channel added or removed |
| Billing | Plan changed, payment method updated |
Each log entry records:
- Time — exact timestamp of the action
- Actor — the team member who performed it (or “System” for automated events)
- Action — what was done (e.g.,
status_page.incident_updated) - Resource — the specific object affected
- Details — additional context (e.g., old and new values for a changed setting)
How to Access Audit Logs
- Open Teams
- Select the team
- Open People & Access → Audit log
- Use the action filter dropdown to narrow results by event type
- Use the limit selector (up to 500 entries) to control how many rows are shown
Logs are displayed newest-first. Older entries beyond the retention window are not shown.
If you are already inside an individual team page and have permission to manage that team, the Team Information sidebar also includes a View logs shortcut.
Filtering by Action Type
The action filter lets you focus on a specific category of events. Common filters include:
status_page.*— all changes to status page settings or contentincident.*— incident lifecycle eventsmonitor.*— monitor configuration changesteam.*— team membership changes
Audit Logs vs. Status Page Settings Audit
There are two separate audit systems:
| Account Audit Logs | Status Page Settings Audit | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | One selected team and its shared resources | One specific status page |
| Access | Teams → People & Access → Audit log | Status Page → Settings → Audit |
| Plan | Business+ | Starter+ |
| Best for | Team membership and shared-resource accountability | Per-page change tracking |
For detailed per-page configuration changes, see Status Page Settings Audit.
