Teams and business

Use the audit log in 1Password Business (beta)

Learn how to use the beta audit log to monitor events that happen on your team.

With 1Password Business, owners and administrators can view the beta audit log to keep track of important events in the account, such as when team members view reports or set up new devices. Other team members can also view the audit log if they’re part of a group with the View Administrative Sidebar permission.

Help

Events and features will be added to the audit log throughout the beta. If there’s a feature you need from the old audit log, or if you want to access events that took place before August 30, 2025, you can return to the old audit log at any time.

Turn on the audit log beta:

To get started with the beta:

  1. Sign in to your account on 1Password.com.
  2. Select Audit Log in the sidebar.
  3. Select Try new audit log at the top of the page.

To return to the old audit log, select Return to old audit log at the top of the page. You can switch between the old and new audit log at any time during the beta.

Read the audit log

The beta uses a new audit logging model designed to provide a more comprehensive view of the actions being performed in a 1Password account.

Each audit log entry provides information about an action (event), including: who performed the action, what was affected, and context about where and how the action occurred. The following is an example of what you might see in an audit log entry:

    • verb: The action that was performed. For example: grant.
