Audit View Permissions

We are needing to give users permissions to view the audit log, but do not want to give them System Administrator permissions. I have given them EventView permissions. We are currently on version 3.2.19, and I think in a previous version (but not 100% sure) if we gave them the link to the audit page (/app#/configuration/audit) they could view it. Now when they try to view it they get an error that states “You do not have permission to perform this action. Please contact your Octopus administrator. Missing permission: AdministerSystem.”

However, I have verified that they have access to the API to pull the data (/api/events). We are evaluating if we need to build our own UI to call the web service to pull this data out, or if this will be fixed in Octopus and they will be able to use the out of the box page.

Hi Kelly,

Thanks for getting in touch! We did upgrade the permissions needed for that and other configuration pages. There were concerns about the data shown that could not be separated by other permissions like project/environment and even linking to other documents. The API data is a bit different and is used and displayed a bit differently, so you could build a UI around it, and it is unlikely we will change that behavior.

Hope this helps!
