Web interface session events#

In addition to logging API calls, events are also logged when sessions are created/deleted in the web interface, i.e. when a user logs in to/out of the cloud management console.

There are several types of such events, each having its own data set. The possible event types are described below.

Event types#

OpenSession#

This event is created each time an ordinary user attempts to log in to the web interface, whether successfully or not. The following information is logged:

  • IP address from which the log-in attempt was initiated.

  • An indication of whether two-factor authentication was used.

  • ID of the created session, if successfully created.

ADOpenSession#

This event is created each time a log-in attempt is made via an identity provider. The following information is logged:

  • IP address from which the log-in attempt was initiated.

  • The name of the identity provider used for logging-in.

  • ID of the created session, if successfully created.

CloseSession#

This event is created when an ordinary user logs out of the web interface by clicking Sign Out. The following information is logged:

  • IP address from which the user logged out.

  • ID of the closed session.

AutoCloseSession#

This event is created when a session is automatically closed. The following information is logged:

  • ID of the closed session.

  • The reason for automatically closing the session.

Currently, there are two reasons to close a session automatically:

  • Session timeout.

  • User deletion.
