SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance sends relevant information about changes made to security and configuration events to SAP Audit Log Service where it is stored centrally.
By default, SAP Audit Log Service allow 90 days for retention. If we wish to have a different retention time, we can enable the Audit Log service premium edition service plan to configure a flexible retention period longer than the free 90 days.
To view the logs stored in the SAP Audit Log Service we need to subscribe the Audit Log Viewer application provided by the SAP Audit Log Service in your tenant. Create a role collection with the role Audit log Auditor also made available by the log service. Assign this role collection to the users who wish to view the audit logs.
