# Audit event streaming **(ULTIMATE)**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/332747) in GitLab 14.5 [with a flag](../administration/feature_flags.md) named `ff_external_audit_events_namespace`. Disabled by default.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FLAG:
|
||
|
|
On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is not available. To make it available per group, ask an administrator to [enable the feature flag](../administration/feature_flags.md) named `ff_external_audit_events_namespace`. On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.
|
||
|
|
You should not use this feature for production environments.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Event streaming allows owners of top-level groups to set an HTTP endpoint to receive **all** audit events about the group, and its
|
||
|
|
subgroups and projects.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Top-level group owners can manage their audit logs in third-party systems such as Splunk, using the Splunk
|
||
|
|
[HTTP Event Collector](https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.2/Data/UsetheHTTPEventCollector). Any service that can receive
|
||
|
|
structured JSON data can be used as the endpoint.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE:
|
||
|
|
GitLab can stream a single event more than once to the same destination. Use the `id` key in the payload to deduplicate incoming data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Add a new event streaming destination
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
WARNING:
|
||
|
|
Event streaming destinations will receive **all** audit event data, which could include sensitive information. Make sure you trust the destination endpoint.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To enable event streaming, a group owner must add a new event streaming destination using the `externalAuditEventDestinationCreate` mutation
|
||
|
|
in the GraphQL API.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```graphql
|
||
|
|
mutation {
|
||
|
|
externalAuditEventDestinationCreate(input: { destinationUrl: "https://mydomain.io/endpoint/ingest", groupPath: "my-group" } ) {
|
||
|
|
errors
|
||
|
|
externalAuditEventDestination {
|
||
|
|
destinationUrl
|
||
|
|
group {
|
||
|
|
name
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Event streaming is enabled if:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The returned `errors` object is empty.
|
||
|
|
- The API responds with `200 OK`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## List currently enabled streaming destinations
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Group owners can view a list of event streaming destinations at any time using the `externalAuditEventDesinations` query type.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```graphql
|
||
|
|
query {
|
||
|
|
group(fullPath: "my-group") {
|
||
|
|
id
|
||
|
|
externalAuditEventDestinations {
|
||
|
|
nodes {
|
||
|
|
destinationUrl
|
||
|
|
id
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the resulting list is empty, then audit event streaming is not enabled for that group.
