Configuring Audit Logging | K15t

Within Confluence it is possible to use the Audit log section to view specific logged events with the exporter app. This documentation outlines the events which are logged by the exporter app and outlines scenarios that can cause differences in audit logging. For general information regarding Atlassian's Audit Log feature please see their documentation.

Logging Targets

Events can be logged on multiple targets. These must be configured independently and any combination can be used.

See the table below for descriptions of the individual event types.

Audit Log - Confluence 7.5.0 or later

All events will be added to the Confluence Audit log by default. See the Confluence documentation for details and differences between Confluence versions and editions (Server or Data Center).

All events will be logged in the 'Apps' coverage area.
On Data Center make sure to set the

coverage level

as needed (see table below). This is accessible in the Audit Log section via ••• > Settings
Past events cannot be retrieved retrospectively if the incorrect logging coverage is set.

Example audit log entries

Confluence 8 - Data Center

Features available on Confluence 8.0 (Data Center)

Log Files - all Confluence versions

After enabling this target, subsequent events will be printed to the standard Confluence log files. You need to enable this by configuring logging for the below logger names.

Please read the corresponding Confluence documentation for instructions and to understand the difference between temporary and permanent logging configuration.

Set any of the below loggers to INFO level.

To log all events:

com.k15t.scroll.scroll-pdf.AUDIT

To control logging by event type you can define these instead:

com.k15t.scroll.scroll-pdf.AUDIT.export-job
com.k15t.scroll.scroll-pdf.AUDIT.template-change
