Audit logs on Talend Administration Center
Audit logs are used to detect and analyze problems in how the application is used (attempted attacks, malicious activities by authorized users, and so on). The audit logs send selected security events to Talend LogServer by http appender.
From Talend Administration Center, a user with Auditor role can access an extended event logging module. This
Logging page allows you to collect and classify time-stamped
audit logs and make them easy to explore.
Information noteNote: Talend LogServer is
deprecated from Talend 8.0
onwards.
To enable audit logs without Talend LogServer, go
to <tomcat_path>WEB-INF\classes\audit.properties and set
the following parameters:
-
in configuration.properties,
auditlog.enable=true
- in audit.properties,
log.appender=file appender.file.path=/<filename>/audit.json
If you want to collect and display logs from Data Integration, ESB, or MDM in an external Elastic stack, refer to Configuring Talend logging modules with an external Elastic stack with X-Pack.
