Audit Logs for Notification Profiles and Incident Settings

Strata Cloud Manager records every configuration change to notification profiles and incident settings, publishing each modification to the Strata Logging Service log viewer.
Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
Strata Cloud Manager records every create, update, and delete action for notification profiles and incident settings, publishing these modifications to the Strata Logging Service log viewer. To determine who made a configuration change, which fields were modified, and when the change occurred, use the log viewer directly within Strata Cloud Manager.
Audit logging provides complete visibility into modifications made to notification profiles and incident settings, simplifying post-incident analysis and troubleshooting. When alert behaviors or incident settings change unexpectedly, you can trace the modifications to identify the exact cause and maintain operational compliance.
Each audit log entry captures the following details:
  • Change type- Specifies whether the action was a create, update, or delete action.
  • Affected object- Identifies the name of the notification profile or incident setting that changed.
  • Modified fields- Lists the specific fields that changed along with their before-and-after values. Sensitive fields such as webhook credentials, passwords, and signing secrets are redacted in audit logs.
  • User- Identifies the administrator who made the change.
  • Timestamp- Records the date and time of the modification.
The following table describes all fields available in audit logs.
Field NameDescription
TSG IDThe ID that uniquely identifies a Tenant Service Group (TSG) that this log record is associated with.
Log SourceIdentifies the origin of the data—the system that produced the data, for example, incidents.
Device SNUnique identifier of the log source. For example, if an incident generates the log, this is the incident setting ID, for example, ba6ffb4c-d14f-4b95-ba56-49de6.
Time ReceivedTime the log was received in Strata Logging Service. The platform populates this field automatically.
Event TimeTime when the log was generated.
Event NameThe name associated with an event, for example, Incident Setting UPDATE.
Event DetailsDetails about the event, including the specific fields that changed and their before-and-after values.
Event ResultThe result of an event, for example, success or failure.
Platform TypeThe platform type. Valid types are VM, PA, NGFW, and Strata Cloud Manager.
Device NameName of the log source—the setting name or notification profile name, for example, Test_setting_posture_LOG1.
Event IDSystem-generated unique identifier for audit records, for example, a4d17255-63e1-47b6-8e84-42c0d74d0f7f.
Event SubcategoryThe sub-category of the event defined by the application, for example, Settings or Notification Profile.
Event Source User UUIDThe unique UUID for the user who made the change.
Event Source User First NameThe first name of the user who made the change.
Event Source User EMailThe email address of the user who made the change.
Audit log entries are retained under a rolling six-month visibility window. Entries older than six months expire automatically. Existing role-based access control (RBAC) restricts access to audit log data to administrator roles.
To locate specific changes quickly, filter audit log entries by Event Category as "Incidents" and Event Subcategory as "Settings" or "Notification Profiles". You can also access the log viewer directly from the Settings and Notification Profiles pages.
