# What the audit log captures

The audit log records actions taken on your server. Open it from **Dashboard, Audit Logs**. The audit log is free.

## What kinds of actions

* **Settings changes.** Any edit to your server settings, and resetting ticket counters.
* **Panels.** Creating, editing, moving, resending, and deleting a panel.
* **Templates.** Creating and deleting a template, creating and deleting a template share code, and importing a template with a code.
* **Custom commands.** Creating, editing, and deleting a custom command.
* **Tickets.** Claiming, transferring, and closing a ticket.
* **Applications.** A member submitting an application, and approving or denying one.
* **Temporary dashboard access.** Creating, claiming, and revoking a temporary access link.
* **Bot Personalizer.** Updating the Bot Personalizer settings.
* **Premium.** Accepting a premium qualification.

## What is stored per entry

Each entry records the action type, the time it happened, the user who did it, and which server it was on.

That is all. The audit log answers **who did what, and when**. It does not record which exact value changed from one setting to another. If you need to keep a record of a configuration before a risky edit, write it down or save a template first.

## What is not logged

* Opening the dashboard or viewing a page is not logged. Only changes are.
* Ticket message content is not in the audit log. That is in the transcript.
* A member opening a ticket is not an audit event. The Opened Tickets Log Channel records that instead.

## How long entries are kept

Indefinitely. There is no expiry on audit-log entries.
