Product Audit Logs

The Calibo Accelerate platform provides a comprehensive audit logging system to track all actions performed on a product. These audit logs help ensure transparency, security, and compliance by maintaining a clear record of activities associated with a product. Having a structured audit log improves governance, risk management, and accountability, allowing you to review past events, detect anomalies, and troubleshoot efficiently.

Product audit logs are categorized into two sections:

General Logs: All product-related events except tool provisioning are logged in this section.

Tool Provisioning Logs: Events related to providing or revoking tools access for users within the product team are captured in this section.
