Viewing audit records in BMC Helix Dashboards

As a tenant administrator, use the out-of-the-box BMC Helix Audit dashboard in BMC Helix Dashboards to view information about the operations performed on various objects in BMC Helix Portal and the integrated products.

For example, when permission is revoked for a user, the Dashboard records information such as the name of the user who revoked the permissions and the user whose permissions were revoked.
