CassandraAuditWriter table columns
When logging audit data to a database table using the CassandraAuditWriter logger, the audit data is stored in the dse_audit.audit_log table.
This table has the following columns.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
|
Date of the event. |
|
DSE node address. |
|
|
|
The system timestamp of the event. |
|
The UUID of the batch query the event was grouped with when written to Cassandra. |
|
The event category. |
|
The keyspace of the event. |
|
The query or event description. |
|
The IP address of the client. |
|
The table affected by the event. |
|
The type of the event. |
|
The authenticated user triggering the event. If authentication isn’t enabled, the user is anonymous. |
Using cqlsh, a SELECT statement can access the data if a user/role has permission:
SELECT * FROM dse_audit.audit_log;
with sample output from a DSE Graph query:
