IDM 7.2.2

Workflow audit

The audit service logs workflow information in the activity event topic (default location: openidm/audit/activity.audit.json).

Example workflow audit events using the provisioning-with-workflow sample:

Each step shows the action performed along with the resulting audit data.

  1. user1 completes the Contractor Onboarding Form.

    {
  "_id": "f24ac83b-200c-449d-b017-d12b9c6c9091-3871",
  "timestamp": "2020-05-06T17:39:52.021Z",
  "eventName": "workflow-create_process",
  "transactionId": "f24ac83b-200c-449d-b017-d12b9c6c9091-3865",
  "userId": "user1",
  "runAs": "user1",
  "objectId": "workflow/processinstance/6",
  "operation": "CREATE",
  "changedFields": [],
  "revision": null,
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "message": "Process created. processDefinitionId = contractorOnboarding:1:5, processDefinitionKey = null, businessKey = null",
  "passwordChanged": false
}

  2. manager1 self-assigns the task.

    {
  "_id": "f24ac83b-200c-449d-b017-d12b9c6c9091-5748",
  "timestamp": "2020-05-06T17:43:18.058Z",
  "eventName": "workflow-update_task",
  "transactionId": "f24ac83b-200c-449d-b017-d12b9c6c9091-5744",
  "userId": "manager1",
  "runAs": "manager1",
  "objectId": "workflow/taskinstance/36",
  "operation": "UPDATE",
  "changedFields": [
    "/assignee"
  ],
  "revision": null,
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "message": "Task updated",
  "passwordChanged": false
}

    "changedFields":["/assignee"] only displays when conf/audit.json contains the property "watchedFields" : [ "assignee" ]. For a complete list of fields that can be watched in this situation, see the API Descriptor for UPDATE workflow/taskinstance/.

  3. manager1 completes the task. Notice that transactionId is correlated to all managed/user, and other, operations.
