OAuth log events

Review 3rd-party application usage and data access requests

As your organization's administrator, you can run searches and take action on OAuth log events. For example, you can view a record of actions to review 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).

Your access to log events

  • Your ability to run a search depends on your Google edition, your administrative privileges, and the data source. You can run a search on all users, regardless of their Google Workspace edition.
  • Your Workspace subscription provides access to the log events using either the Audit & investigation tool or the Security center. 
    • Premium Google Workspace editions (Enterprise Plus, Enterprise Standard, or Education Plus) provide access to the Security Center and the more advanced features of the security investigation tool. The investigation tool enables super admins to identify, triage, and take action on security and privacy issues. For details, see About the security investigation tool.
    • All other Google Workspace editions can access the logs using the Audit and Investigation tool. For details, see About the audit and investigation page.

Forward log event data to Google Cloud

You can opt in to share the log event data with Google Cloud. If you turn on sharing, data is forwarded to Cloud Logging where you can query and view your logs and control how you route and store your logs.
