Need audit logs for Sevone NMS

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Useful For debugging.

To know details such as , what action was performed at which time by which user.

Sample API log required:

 <User> <Time> <Request Type> <URL> <Status> -

<admin> <10:45:00 IST> <POST> <https://hk_hkg_meg_na_mgt_dnc_01.sc.net/api/v3/devices> <200>

 

Similarly need logs for all actions performed from GUI as well.

    Thanks for submitting this idea. Currently access logs are available from the CLI, primarily from /var/log/nginx/access.log

    This log records all UI and API based user interactions. While it doesn't record in the exact format you referenced, it is very close. Here's an example:

    /var/log/nginx/access.log:249:123.123.123.123 - - [27/Mar/2025:02:06:23 +0000] "GET /api/v3/health/version HTTP/1.1" 200 161 "-" "axios/1.4.0"

    You'll notice in the example above that the user ID or user name is not recorded for every action. Instead, all activity is tracked back to an IP address.

    If you're looking for additional verbosity you can change the environment variable for API logging to debug though this may result in too frequent log rotation to be useful. Here's how: In /SevOne/appliance/settings/soa.env add LOG_LEVEL=debug

    Please let me know if this helps. If there are specific written requirements behind this request, like an RFC, please provide that reference.
