# Audit Log

> Every change made through the LangWatch settings, API and AI Gateway, with who did it, from where, and what changed.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Available on Enterprise plans.** Reading the audit log needs an Enterprise plan, and a
> self-hosted deployment needs an Enterprise license. Without one the page shows an upgrade notice
> and the API refuses the query. To enable it, contact
> [enterprise@langwatch.ai](mailto:enterprise@langwatch.ai).

## What is logged

The audit log is at **Settings > Audit Log**. It keeps one row per action, for the whole organization, and rows are never deleted.

LangWatch writes a row for:

* Every change made in the settings pages or through the app: creating, updating, archiving or deleting an organization, a team, a project, a member, an invite, a role, a role binding, a group, an API key, a secret, a model provider, a data retention rule or an SSO connection. Both the successful call and the refused one are logged, with the error on the refused one.
* Every LangWatch AI Gateway change: virtual keys, budgets, cache rules and guardrails, including the state before and after the change.
* Every call to the management API on members, invites, SCIM tokens and API keys.
* Support impersonation, with the impersonating operator recorded on the row.

Sign-ins are not logged. Reads of product data (opening a trace, running a search) are not logged.

## What a row contains

| Column | Content |
| - | - |
| Timestamp | When the action ran |
| Source | **Platform** for a settings or API change, **Gateway** for a LangWatch AI Gateway change |
| User | Name and email of the person who acted |
| Action | The action name, for example `organization.updateMemberRole`, `role.create` or `gateway.virtual_key.rotated` |
| Target | The kind and id of the changed object on Gateway rows, for example `virtual_key` |
| Project | The project the action applied to, when it applied to one |
| IP Address | The client address of the request |
| Error | The error message when the action was refused |

The CSV export adds the user agent, the request arguments, and the before and after state of Gateway rows. Secret values in the arguments are replaced by `[redacted]`.

![Settings > Audit Log with the filters and a page of rows](https://mintcdn.com/langwatch/MjC98pQzFpMBr6tu/images/platform/audit-log.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=MjC98pQzFpMBr6tu\&q=85\&s=5beb19dfb380164c00e934fb26496d2e)

## Filters

| Filter | Behavior |
| - | - |
| Search by User | Matches one member by name or email |
| Filter by Action | Case-insensitive substring match on the action name. `virtual_key` matches every virtual key action |
| Project | One project, or all. Rows with no project are always included |
| Select Date | A date range or a preset period. The default is the last 30 days |

Every filter is in the page URL, so you can share a filtered view. A virtual key or a budget page links here with its own target already filtered.

## Export

Click **Export CSV** to download every row that matches the current filters as `audit_logs_<date>.csv`. JSON columns (arguments, before, after) are cut at 4096 characters per cell, and a cut cell ends with a marker that gives the number of characters removed.

## Who can see it

Opening **Settings > Audit Log** and querying the log both need `auditLog:view`. The log shows every member's actions, so by default only administrators hold it; the built-in Viewer and Member roles do not. The query asks for it at the organization, and again at a project when you filter by one. A custom role can grant `auditLog:view` on its own.
