Audit Log Display

This page documents several ways to view results from the Audit Log System. For more information on how the Audit Log works, see the Audit Log and Profiles page. 

Access the Audit Log with Table Functions

Since Ignition makes accessing data from databases seamless, it is possible to bind a data property of a table directly to database table. Alternatively, it is possible to access the contents of the audit log with table functions.

Once you have an Audit Log setup and attached to a project, you can go back to that project and see what information is in that audit log. This example uses the Table Functions to extract data from the Audit Log.

1. In Designer, drag a Table component on to a window.
    
2. In the Property Editor, click on the binding icon from the table's Data property.
   The Property Binding window is displayed. 
    
3. Select the Functions Binding Type. 
    
4. Select Functions from the various binding options.
   1. Binding Function, select the Audit Log from the drop-down menu.
   2. Audit Profile Name, select Audit or the name of your Audit Profile.
   3. Start Date, enter the appropriate start date.
   4. End Date, enter the appropriate end date.
   5. Polling Mode, select Relative.
   6. Select any other appropriate function options from the menu, and click OK.
   
   
    
    
5. The table will populate with all the information stored in the audit log based on the Table Functions you selected. You can use the Table Customizer to configure how you want the table to look by reorganizing and hiding columns, making columns sortable, and assigning meaningful headers.
