Audit Logs
At the heart of enterprise reliability is accountability. DeployClear replaces the guesswork of "who ran what command" by providing an immutable, non-repudiable stream of events inside each Team called the Audit Log.
Understanding Audit Events
Every significant action inside a workspace is captured and etched into the Audit Log permanently. Neither an Organization Owner nor an Admin can delete these records.
Navigating to the Audit page on the sidebar reveals the comprehensive log. Every entry contains:
- Timestamp: The exact time the action occurred in UTC.
- Actor: The email and ID of the user or system responsible for the event.
- Action Type: What exactly happened (e.g.,
Job.Run.Started,Secret.Created,Request.Approved). - Target: The specific Resource ID affected (e.g., a specific Block ID or Job ID).
- Metadata: Comprehensive JSON context relevant to the specific event.
Why is Auditing Critical?
1. Compliance (SOC2 / HIPAA)
If your organization requires strict compliance, proving who deployed a change to your infrastructure is mandatory. DeployClear's Immutable Audit Log serves as concrete evidence for compliance auditors of your change management and approval workflows.
2. Post-Mortems
When infrastructure goes down, the first question is always "What changed?". Because every deployment and block modification is tracked, your engineers can instantly trace an incident back to the exact user, deployment request, and line of code that introduced the failure.
