Audit Log

The Audit Log provides a centralized, chronological record of security-relevant and administrative actions performed within the imper.ai platform. It is designed to support security monitoring , investigation , governance , and compliance by giving administrators visibility into authentication activity and key administrative changes.

Each entry captures who performed an action, when it occurred, and what was done. This allows teams to reconstruct timelines and identify suspicious or unexpected behavior.

Note: The Audit Log is read-only and cannot be modified or deleted by users.

What the Audit Log records

The Audit Log records authentication, session, and administrative events generated by activity within the imper.ai platform. These events reflect imper.ai platform activity , not actions performed inside external systems.

Examples include:

  • Successful and failed login attempts

  • User logout events

  • User and protected-user administration events (for example, changes to protected users or roles)

All events are recorded automatically by the system.

Audit log displaying user login successes with timestamps and actions recorded.

Audit Log fields

Each Audit Log entry includes the following fields:

FieldDescription
TimestampThe date and time when the event occurred, displayed in the platform’s configured time zone.
UserThe email address (or identifier) of the user associated with the event.
ActionA short label describing the event (for example, Login Success or User Role Updated).
DetailsAdditional context about the event (for example, authentication method).

The log is displayed in reverse chronological order , with the most recent events shown first.

Event types

The Audit Log records the following event types (availability may vary by feature enablement):

EventDescription
Login SuccessThe user successfully authenticated and gained access to the platform.
Login FailedAn authentication attempt failed (for example, invalid credentials or failed verification).
LogoutThe user explicitly logged out of the platform or their session ended.
Protected Users AddedA protected user was added to the protected user scope.
Protected Users RemovedA protected user was removed from the protected user scope.
User Role UpdatedA user’s role was changed (for example, permissions updated).
User InvitedA user invitation was created and sent.
Management Users AddedA management (admin/management) user was added.
Management Users DeletedA management (admin/management) user was deleted.

Note: Multiple consecutive Login Failed events may indicate mistyped credentials, user confusion, or attempted unauthorized access.

Using the Audit Log

The Audit Log includes built-in controls to help you quickly locate relevant events and export them for review.

Use the search bar to search across user , action , or details.

Filter by user

Use the User filter to filter the log by a specific user email/identifier.

Filter by action

Use the Action filter to narrow results to specific event types. You can select one or multiple actions, such as Login Failed or Protected Users Added.

Filter by date

Use the date control (calendar icon) to limit results to a specific time range.

Export

Click CSV (download icon) to export the currently visible results for offline review or compliance evidence.

Refresh

Click the refresh icon to reload the Audit Log and fetch the latest events.

Pagination

Use the pagination controls at the bottom of the table to navigate between pages of results.

Example scenarios

Investigating repeated login failures

An administrator notices multiple Login Failed entries for the same user within a short time period. This may indicate:

  • A user entering incorrect credentials

  • A forgotten password

  • An attempted brute-force or credential-stuffing attempt

Use the User filter to isolate the account, then filter by Action to review failures only.

Verifying successful access

A Login Success entry confirms that a user successfully authenticated at a specific time. This can be useful when:

  • Confirming whether a reported access issue actually occurred

  • Verifying platform usage during a security review

Tracking administrative changes

If protected users or administrative users are updated, filter by action types such as Protected Users Added , Protected Users Removed , or User Role Updated to reconstruct what changed and when.

Scope and limitations

  • The Audit Log records imper.ai platform events only.

  • It does not log actions performed inside external integrations or third-party systems.

  • The Audit Log is read-only and cannot be edited or deleted.

Summary

The Audit Log is a foundational administrative feature that provides transparency into authentication activity and key administrative actions within imper.ai. With search, filtering, date scoping, and CSV export, it supports effective monitoring, investigation, and compliance without relying on external tooling.
