The Event log provides a full overview of all events that have happened through Tricent across your organization. If you are delegated administrator, you will only see the events related to the organizational units you are responsible for.
An event is an operation that has been started by a user, an administrator, or by the scheduled cleanup engine.
Narrowing down results
You can filter the event log by time and type (see type descriptions below), and use the search field and column sorting to further narrow down the results.
The search field looks into both acting users and target users - i.e. the user, who initiated the event, and the user(s) it was performed on.
Some events will be listed as having 0 entries in the column Size. This is the case if it was time to unshare files, but there were no files to unshare because, for instance, they had been deleted in Google Workspace.
You can include these events by toggling Show empty events.
Understanding results and rolling back events
If you click an event, you can look into its details.
The sidepanel will give you information about the user that initiated the event (listed under Executed by), the time of completion, and the file(s) and user(s) the event affected. The column Status lists whether or not the operation was carried out successfully.
Events related to unsharing and extension of sharing on both My Drives and shared drives can be rolled back. In the case of unsharing, a rollback will re-share the file or folder with the user(s) that had access prior to the unsharing.
Once the event has been rolled back, it will be marked with the () icon.
