Examples

The following code example shows how to generate a unique audit GUID and display it on the console.

C#

using System;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo;

namespace samples
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            //Create the audit
            Server dbServer = new Server("(local)");
            Audit dbAudit = new Audit(dbServer, "Test Audit");
            dbAudit.DestinationType = AuditDestinationType.File;
            dbAudit.FilePath = "C:\\AuditDirectory";
            dbAudit.Create();
            
            //Get the GUID and display it on the console
            Console.WriteLine("The GUID of the audit log file is: " +
                              dbAudit.Guid);
        }
    }
}

Powershell

#Create the audit
$dbServer = new-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server("(local)")
$dbAudit = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Audit($dbServer, "Test Audit")
$dbAudit.DestinationType = [Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.AuditDestinationType]'File'
$dbAudit.FilePath = "C:\AuditDirectory"
$dbAudit.Create()

#Get and display the GUID
Write-Host "The GUID of the audit log file is:" $dbAudit.Guid
