Audit Log

Mixpanel’s Audit Log tracks activity within your organization and projects, providing visibility into who made changes, when they occurred, and what was modified. Audit log helps teams maintain security, troubleshoot issues, and meet compliance requirements.

Audit log is available on all plans. Free and Growth plans retain logs for 90 days. Enterprise plans retain logs for 2 years. See our pricing page for more details.

Accessing Audit Log

Audit log can be accessed at two levels:

  • Organization-level logs — Found in Organization Settings. Accessible to organization admins and owners, these log all events across the organization, including user authentication, service account management, and more.
  • Project-level logs — Found in Project Settings. Accessible to project admins and owners, these logs include project-specific events like report creation and data exports.

Some events are tracked only at the organization level, while most are available in both organization and project logs.

  1. Navigate to Organization Settings or Project Settings by clicking the gear icon in the bottom left navigation > Settings.
  2. Select Audit Log from the sidebar menu.
  3. View the activity log showing recent events, who performed them, and when they occurred.

FAQ

Who can access Audit Log?

Only users with Admin or Owner roles in an organization or project can view the audit log for that organization or project. Custom roles can be configured to include audit log access as well.

Can I filter Audit Log by event type or user?

Yes, the Audit Log interface provides filtering options to help you find specific events or actions by particular users.

What’s the difference between organization and project Audit Log?

Most events appear in both places. Organization Audit Log contains additional organization-wide events like user authentication and service account creation. Project Audit Log is limited to project-specific events. The tables with a scope field say which audit log will contain the event. If there is not scope column in a table, the event should show up in both organization and project audit logs.
