You must elevate your role to Security Admin to configure tables and fields for Identity and Access Audit.

The following tables can be configured for auditing​:

  • Group [sys_user_group]​
  • Role [sys_user_role]​
  • Access Control [sys_security_acl]​
  • User [sys_user]​
  • Group Role [sys_group_has_role]​
  • User Role [sys_user_has_role]​
  • Access Roles [sys_security_acl_role]​
  • Contained Role [sys_user_role_contains]​
  • Group Member [sys_user_grmember]​

Note: To understand which fields can be configured for the tables, see Supported and unsupported fields in Identity and Access Audit.

    Note: The following modifications for the security auditable fields result in more processing time when doing bulk import:

    • Adding more fields from the available field list for audit.
    • Enabling additional operations such as create, update, or delete.
  4. Select Update.

    Any changes to the password field add a new record to the Security Table Audits. In this example, the audit shows a changed password field for the user Abel Tuter.

    Selecting the created record displays the details of the changes.
