Isolate User-Specific Activity with Custom Audit Filters
Important
Effective January 13, 2025, the Project Activity Feed no longer logs the usernames of Atlas users when they read or modify data in the Data Explorer in the Atlas UI. Even though the Project Activity Feed will no longer log usernames, it continues to log user connections from the Atlas UI to a cluster.
To track user activity, you can use database audit logs and create custom audit filters that isolate user activity associated with the following system-generated Administrator roles unique to Data Explorer:
{ role: "atlasDataAccessReadWrite", db: "admin" } { role: "atlasDataAccessReadOnly", db: "admin" } { role: "atlasDataAccessAdmin", db: "admin" }
For example, you could create a custom audit filter similar to the following:
{ "roles": { "$elemMatch": { "$or": [ { "role": "atlasDataAccessReadWrite", "db": "admin" }, { "role": "atlasDataAccessReadOnly", "db": "admin" }, { "role": "atlasDataAccessAdmin", "db": "admin" } ] } } }
To learn more about audit logs and review specific examples of role filters, see Configure Audit Filter.
