Dashboard Logs
The Clerk Dashboard provides Application Logs for activity within an instance and Admin Logs, an audit log of administrative changes across your workspace.
Viewing and filtering logs
Both log pages display a reverse-chronological feed of events. The available filters differ by log type.
You can filter Application Logs by:
- Event type: Filter by event type (e.g.,
user.created,sign_in.completed). Supports trailing wildcards (e.g.,sign_in.*). - Actor: Filter by the user or API key that triggered the event.
- Subject: Filter by the resource ID being acted upon (e.g., a user ID or Organization ID).
- IP address: Filter by the IP address the event originated from.
- Trace ID: Filter by distributed trace ID for correlating events across systems.
- Device: Filter by device ID.
- Date range: Set a time window to scope the results.
For a complete list of event types, see Supported events.
You can filter Admin Logs by:
- Event type: Filter by event type (e.g.,
oauth_application.updated,domain.created). Supports trailing wildcards (e.g.,oauth_application.*). - Instance: Filter by the instance the action targeted.
- Application: Filter by the application the action targeted.
- Actor: Filter by the actor that triggered the event — a Dashboard user, an instance , or a Platform API access token.
- IP address: Filter by the IP address the action originated from.
- Time range: Set a time window to scope the results.
