Auditing all reports pertaining to a universe or folder

Hi All,

I am new when it comes to auditing in BO. Can anyone plz help me in auditing all reports and their Last Refresh Date pointing to a universe or placed in a particular folder? I know we can do for the one pointing to a universe…but can we do it folder wise? If so can anyone give me the syntax for the query to run in the Query Builder?

Thanks a ton in advance!

No one knows the syntax? I was assuming this is a fairly easy one…maybe I am wrong.

You should be able to accomplish mostly through Auditor alone but it’ll be a little hairy.

Through a series of derived tables, you’ll want to get the max(start_timestamp) from the audit_event table where your report is in the audit_detail table with your desired universe (using the right detail_type_id) and the desired object folder (also using another detail_type_id).

Those two lookups on detail_type_id are just derived tables.

Hi, how do you audit users who accessed a particular universe?? I want to be able to do that as well because I have one universe that contains sensitive data and it is a requirement to keep track of who’s running reports off it.

Look at the detail_type table for the correct value and use that in your audit_detail query where the detail text equals your universe name and the detail_type_id = that value.
