This page describes how audit logging works for secured private applications
using Chrome Enterprise Premium client connector. Enabling Cloud Audit Logs lets you
view a user access request to a private application and see all the access
levels a user has and has not met.
Enable audit logs
These logs are considered Data Access logs.
Therefore, they must be explicitly enabled for audit logging under the
beyondcorp.googleapis.com service name since they are disabled by default.
Each audit log record contains information about users who attempted to
access the private application, what access levels
were enforced, and whether they were denied or granted access.
The following are some important values:
Field
Value
authenticationInfo
The email of the user who tried to access the resource as principalEmail.
requestMetadata.callerIp
The IP address the request originated from.
requestMetadata.requestAttributes
Contains access level names used for policy enforcement on the user access.
authorizationInfo.resource
The client connector service resource being accessed.
authorizationInfo.granted
A boolean representing whether the user was permitted the requested access.
method.Name
The called policy enforcement method. Should always be AuthorizeUser
