Prerequisites

Before the official launch of the audit log feature, the free trial edition was activated for the instance.
Note Starting from January 6, 2022, the official edition of the audit log feature has been launched in all regions, and new applications for the free trial edition have ended. For more information, see [Notice] On official launch of the pay-as-you-go audit log feature and no more application for the free trial edition.

View audit logs
