Audit Dashboard
This article describes Audit Dashboard and its features.
The Audit Dashboard gives you an overview of the audit actions in the farm for the previous seven days, drillable to specific detailed reports.
The Audit Dashboard makes the monitoring of audit actions easier and more intuitive.
The following tiles with audit actions are visible:
Site Collections with Audit enabled/disabled
Number of SharePoint groups created
Number of broken Permission Inheritances
Top Users by Activity
Top Site Collections by Change
Number of Document Views per day
Number of Changes per Event type
Top 5 Administrative actions
The Site Collections with Audit enabled/disabled tile shows you a number of Site Collections with Audit options enabled/disabled. Clicking on the tile drills to the Audit Settings report with all Web Applications preselected. The tile is disabled when all Site Collections audit settings are disabled.
The SP Groups Created and number of Permission Inheritances Broken tile shows the number of Sharepoint Groups Created and Permission Inheritances Broken. Clicking on the tile drills to the Audit Log Details report. For the SP Groups created, the filter is set to Group Created in the Event type filter, and for the Number of Permission Inheritances Broken, the Event type filter is set to Permission Inheritance Broken.
Horizontal bar charts show Top Users by Activity as well as Top Site Collections by Change. Click on them to perform a drill to the Audit Log Details report with all Event type filter options preselected.
Document Views are represented by a vertical bar chart for each of the previous seven days (if data are available). Clicking on a specific day performs a drill to the Audit Log Details report, with View, Open, and Download options selected in the Event type filter.
