# Audit Log The audit log is a record of events and changes. Users and other systems using ProcessMaker IDP create logs based on these events. Audit logs typically document a sequence of activities or a specific activity. They vary significantly between ProcessMaker IDP services. Audit logs are a valuable resource for admins and auditors who want to examine suspicious activity on a network or diagnose and troubleshoot issues. These logs can provide administrators with invaluable insight into what behavior is normal and what behavior is not. ## **Audit Log Filters** You can apply one or more filters to display only the data that interests you. To clear a filter, click the trashcan icon next to the filter box.

Filter Category	Description

Auth Action	Filter on authentication events such as LOGIN, LOGOUT, or FAILURE.
Entity ID	Filter on a specific ENTITY instance by using a UUID (e.g., cea965d4-96a7-45a5-88ae-587fed7179c2).
