Audit Events API (PREMIUM)

Introduced in GitLab 12.4.

Instance Audit Events (PREMIUM SELF)

The Audit Events API allows you to retrieve instance audit events. This API cannot retrieve group or project audit events.

To retrieve audit events using the API, you must authenticate yourself as an Administrator.

GET /audit_events
Attribute Type Required Description
created_after string no Return audit events created on or after the given time. Format: ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ)
created_before string no Return audit events created on or before the given time. Format: ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ)
