As your organization's administrator, you can use the OAuth Token audit log to track which users are using which third-party mobile or web applications in your domain. For example, when a user opens a Google Workspace Marketplace app, the log records the name of the app and the person using it.
The log also records each time a third-party application is authorized to access Google Account data, such as Google Contacts, Calendar, and Drive files (Google Workspace only).
