Audit Logs
Mixpanel Audit Logs track activity within your organization and projects, providing visibility into who made changes, when they occurred, and what was modified. Audit logs help teams maintain security, troubleshoot issues, and meet compliance requirements.
Audit logs are available on all plans. Free and Growth plans retain logs for 90 days. Enterprise plans retain logs for 2 years. See our pricing page for more details.
Accessing Audit Logs
Audit logs can be accessed at two levels:
- Organization-level logs — Found in Organization Settings. Accessible to users with Admin or Owner roles in the organization.
- Project-level logs — Found in Project Settings. Accessible to users with Admin or Owner roles in the project.
Some events are tracked only at the organization level, while most are available in both organization and project logs.
- Navigate to Organization Settings or Project Settings by clicking the gear icon in the bottom left navigation > Settings.
- Select Audit Logs from the sidebar menu.
- View the activity log showing recent events, who performed them, and when they occurred.

FAQ
Who can access audit logs?
Only users with Admin or Owner roles in an organization or project can view audit logs for that organization or project.
Can I filter audit logs by event type or user?
Yes, the audit logs interface provides filtering options to help you find specific events or actions by particular users.
How long does it take for events to appear in the audit log?
Events typically appear in the audit log within a few minutes of the action occurring.
What’s the difference between organization and project audit logs?
Most events appear in both places. Organization audit logs contain additional organization-wide events like user authentication and service account creation. Project audit logs track project-specific events like report creation and data exports. The tables with a scope field say which audit log will contain the event. If there is not scope column in a table, the event should show up in both Organization and Project audit logs.
