# Data Access Audit

## Overview

The Data Access Audit tab provides a detailed trail of all actions performed within the Data Access module. It helps track changes across users, roles, permissions, and associated metadata objects. The audit log captures who performed an action, what was changed, when it happened, and the source of the change.

Audit entries support visibility and traceability, enabling compliance monitoring and operational transparency across the entire data access lifecycle.

The audit data appears across various levels, including instance, connector, users, groups, and permission entities (database, schema, and table).
