Change Auditor for SharePoint 7.1.1 - Event Reference Guide

Introduction

Change Auditor for SharePoint provides centralized auditing, including configuration, event collection and reporting, for Microsoft SharePoint 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019 servers and farms. It audits all activity related to:

•
Documents - including check-ins/check-outs, additions, deletions, access (viewed), content or metadata updates, renames, moves, and restores.
•
Folders - including additions, deletions, moves, renames, restores, and updates.
•
Document Libraries and Lists - including additions, deletions, renames, and restores.
•
List Items - including additions, deletions, updates, and restores.
•
Permissions and Security Groups - including changes to permission levels, permission inheritances, and security groups.
•
Sites and Site Collections - including creations, deletions, and moves.

In addition to real-time event auditing, you can also enable SharePoint event logging to capture SharePoint events locally in a Windows event log. This event log can then be collected using Quest InTrust to satisfy long-term storage requirements.

* 
NOTE: SharePoint auditing and event logging are only available when you have licensed Change Auditor for SharePoint and have applied a SharePoint Auditing template that defines the SharePoint farm and paths to audit. Contact your Sales Representative for more information on obtaining Change Auditor for SharePoint.

Change Auditor for SharePoint also tracks, audits, reports, and alerts on changes to Microsoft SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business that impact your environment. For information on the audited events, see the Office 365 and Azure Active Directory Event Reference Guide.

This guide lists the events that can be captured by Change Auditor for SharePoint. Separate event reference guides are provided that list the core Change Auditor events (when any Change Auditor license is applied) and the events captured when the different auditing modules are licensed.

Change Auditor for SharePoint Events

Change Auditor for SharePoint tracks, audits, reports, and alerts on changes to SharePoint Server 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019 configuration and permissions changes as well as document stores and lists.

* 
NOTE: For Change Auditor to capture some SharePoint events, you must enable system provided auditing and/or versioning within SharePoint. See SharePoint Event Requirements for a list of the events that require these SharePoint settings to be enabled.

This section lists the audited events captured by Change Auditor for SharePoint. They are listed in alphabetical order by facility:

•
SharePoint Document Library
•
SharePoint Farm
•
SharePoint Folder
•
SharePoint List
•
SharePoint List Item
•
SharePoint Permission
•
SharePoint Security Group
•
SharePoint Site
•
SharePoint Site Collection

SharePoint Document

* 
IMPORTANT: When expecting large numbers of events, it may be necessary to increase the Max Events per Connection setting in the client (Agent Configuration on the Administration Tasks tab) to avoid an ever-increasing backlog of events waiting to be sent from the agent to the coordinator database.
* 
NOTE: To view a complete list of all the events, open the Audit Events page on the Administration Tasks tab. This page contains a list of all the events available for auditing. It also displays the facility to which the event belongs, the severity assigned to each event, if the event is enabled or disabled, and the type of license that is required to capture each event.
