A new SAP Tech Bytes related to the SAP Audit Log service was published today. In this blog post, I will share the details on what is covered in today’s video – Retrieving data using SAP Cloud Integration.
In this SAP Tech Bytes, we will continue to explore the SAP Audit Log service. In this instance, we will retrieve data from the Audit Log Retrieval API using SAP Cloud Integration. For this, we first deploy some credentails and then proceed to build the integration flow. In the integration flow, we implement the pagination mechanism that is required to extract all the data available for a request sent to the API.

The SAP Audit Log service is a platform service which stores all the audit logs written on your behalf by other platform services that you use. It allows you to retrieve the audit logs for your subaccount via the audit log retrieval API or view them using the Audit Log Viewer. The SAP Audit Log service only stores audit log entries written by SAP BTP services, when taking action over your account data. As a developer, the custom applications/services (non-SAP), that you deploy to SAP BTP, do not have write access to the Audit Log Service.
