Overview

In the “Logs” tab of the Dashboard, admins are able to:

  • View and filter for all of the change events that have taken place on the Dispel system.

  • Export or forward these logs for external analysis.

  • View specific information about the event, as well as the user who triggered the event

This feature ensures comprehensive auditing, especially when used in tandem with Dispel's syslog forwarding and screen recording features. To learn more about these supplementary features, visit the links below.
