As a BMC Helix Single Sign-On administrator, you can review the audit records for all events performed from administrator and end-user accounts.
Before you begin
For a selected tenant, enable auditing of records for administrators or end users in the BMC Helix SSO Admin Console. For information about how to enable auditing, see Configuring settings for BMC Helix SSO administrators.
To view the audit records
- Log in to the BMC Helix SSO Admin Console as an administrator.
