New audit log activities: user and role modifications

When an app builder assigns a new role to a user or updates the configuration of a role, the security and privacy of the data stored in the app can be impacted. Account admins need visibility into these types of activities to ensure they are complying with legal and corporate policies. That's why we added new activities to audit logs, covering user, group, and role modifications. The new activities are:

  • Granted user access
  • Revoked user access
  • Updated user access
  • Invited users
  • Created roles
  • Deleted roles
  • Updated roles
  • Granted group access
  • Revoked group access

For example, companies using audit logs may see activities like these:

  • Ariel Adams created the role Executive in app "Subcontractor Management"
  • Vanna Kumar enabled app management and sharing for users with the role Representative in app "Subcontractor Management"
  • Vanna Kumar enabled adding records for users with the role Manager on table Opportunities in app "Subcontractor Management"
  • Ariel Adams removed vkumar@example.com from the app "Subcontractor Management"
  • Vanna Kumar granted access to arieladams5@example.com with role Administrator in app "Subcontractor Management"

Note: These changes are captured even when made within Sandbox.

Visit our audit logs help page to read more about the patterns captured in each of these events.
