I have created audit on my MSSQL server. configured some of the audit log groups for both the auditing specifications. But I am not getting error logs like constraint violation or DML commands failure logs in audit logs. If any query get failed, I want failure reason in audit log.
How to log these errors in audit logs?

Details:

OS: Windows 10

MSSQL Server version: MSSQL14.SQLEXPRESS

Audit log groups used:

  1. Database_Object_Change_Group
  2. Transaction_Group
  3. Schema_Object_Change_Group
  4. Success_Database_Authentication
  5. Failed_Dtabase_Authentication
  6. Failed_Login_Group
  7. INSERT, SELECT, DELETE, UPDATE groups

    You can view and download the audit logs by using the console. On the Databases page, choose the DB instance to show its details, then scroll to the Logs section.

    To download a log file, choose that file in the Logs section and then choose Download.

    You can also get a list of the log files by using the describe-db-log-files AWS CLI command. You can download the contents of a log file by using the download-db-log-file-portion AWS CLI command. For more information, see Viewing and listing database log files and Downloading a database log file.

    Hope this information can help you
