How do I filter and export activity logs?

1 min read

Activity Logs provide an audit trail of organization activity for authorized administrators and auditors. Available history and controls depend on your permission and the organization’s audit-log plan level.

Open Activity Logs #

  1. Sign in to BoardSite and select the correct organization.
  2. Select Activity Logs in the navigation menu.
  3. Review the summary cards for today’s activity, this week, this month, and total logs.

Use one or more filters to narrow the audit trail before opening a log detail.

Filter activity #

  1. Optionally select a User.
  2. Optionally select an Action Type: Authentication, Create, Update, Delete, or View.
  3. Optionally enter Date From and Date To.
  4. Optionally enter text in Search Action.
  5. Select Filter.
  6. Select the details control at the end of a row to review that log entry.

Select Suspicious Activity to review security patterns detected by BoardSite, such as concentrated failed login activity.

Export activity logs #

  1. Select Export.
  2. Choose CSV, Excel (XLSX), or PDF.
  3. Optionally enter a From and To date. Using a focused date range keeps the export manageable.
  4. Select Export to download the file.

Exports can contain user, location, browser, and action information. Store and share them securely.

Export limit: BoardSite limits a single activity-log export to 10,000 records. Use date filters when you need to export a large history.

Troubleshooting #

  • If filters are unavailable, the organization may have basic audit-log access rather than the full audit trail.
  • If Activity Logs is missing, ask a super administrator to verify your activity-log permission and plan access.
  • If an expected event is missing, confirm the organization and date range. Not every activity outside BoardSite is recorded.
