# Runtime APIs audit log

PingFederate records actions performed through the OAuth Client Management Service, the OAuth Access Grant Management Service, and the Session Revocation API in the `<pf_install>/pingfederate/log/runtime-api.log` file.

While the events are not configurable, Log4j 2 configuration settings in the `<pf_install>/pingfederate/server/default/conf/log4j2.xml` file can be adjusted to deliver the desired level of detail surrounding each event.

Each log entry contains information relating to the event, including:

* Time the event occurred on the PingFederate server

* Administrator username performing the action

* Authentication method

* Client IP

* HTTP method

* REST endpoint

* HTTP status code

* HTTP request header

* TLS version

|   | The `<pf_install>/pingfederate/log/runtime-api.log` does not include the HTTP request header and TLS version values by default. You can customize this log to include additional or less information by modifying the pattern elements in the `log4j2.xml` file. For more information, see [Log4j 2 logging service and configuration](pf_log4j_2_loggin_service_and_config.html). |
