Microsoft Entra audit log categories and activities
Microsoft Entra audit logs collect all traceable activities within your Microsoft Entra tenant. Audit logs can be used to determine who made a change to service, user, group, or other item.
This article provides a comprehensive list of the audit categories and their related activities. To jump to a specific audit category, use the "In this article" section.
Audit log activities and categories change periodically. The tables are updated regularly, but might not be in sync with what is available in Microsoft Entra ID. Provide us with feedback if you think there's a missing audit category or activity.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Reports Reader.
- Browse to Identity > Monitoring & health > Audit logs.
- Adjust the filters accordingly.
- To view the details, select a row from the resulting table.

Self-service group management
Users in your tenant can manage many aspects of their group memberships on their own. Use the Self-service group management logs to help troubleshoot issues with these scenarios.
Many of the activities in this group are associated with background processes related to a user's activity. For example, you might see multiple Features_GetFeaturesAsync instances in your logs when a user accesses the MyApps or MyGroups portal. This activity doesn't indicate if the user made any changes. Other activities such as GroupsODataV4_Get often occur in groups for similar user actions.
