Is there a place where users get logged when they startup a session? I couldn’t seem to find any.Thanks, Jake ---

If you enable auditing for the project, login and logout events will be logged: [https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Auditing+Actions+Reference#AuditingActionsReference-PerspectiveAuditingActions](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Auditing+Actions+Reference#AuditingActionsReference-PerspectiveAuditingActions) ---

So I think I have it done. In Security I have a profile setup for internal, I have the project Perspective audit enabled and set to that profile, but when I look at the logs it doesn’t seem to have any thing.Thanks, jake ---

Unless you’ve changed things from the default, simply launching a Perspective session isn’t actually a secured action; everything is unauthenticated. Auditing only kicks in once you change security levels or authorization, e.g. by logging in (or after logging in when you try to reach a page that requires authentication). If you want to log even unauthenticated access to your Perspective page(s), then you’ll probably want a session startup script. ---

They are authorized connections. Also, this is odd, but everytime I try to get logs the date changes to days there wouldn’t be logs, not sure why. ---

Hard to debug without seeing exactly what you’re seeing, unfortunately. What are you using to view the audit logs? Can you show a screenshot? You could try a table in Vision (with the audit log binding function type) to manually pass start/end time and other filters, or just run the [`system.util.queryAuditLog`](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/system.util.queryAuditLog) function manually. ---

so the 2nd one shows when I try to search and 1stafter I hit the search button. This is the interface in the gateway web app. ![2nd](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/7/5/75f35f04946cfcba32a9a967ccf5fbffdd87a51f.jpeg) ![1st](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/3/33081954b2380d25260b6779f82ca16d560a39ec.jpeg) ---

Can you show the project properties where you’ve enabled auditing in your project? Also, what happens if you try a much wider date range, e.g 12/1/2021 - 1/1/2022 or something? ---

Same problem with longer period of time, here’s that screenshot ![3rd](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/2/b/2b11c4537bcf295146f003e715f5e77c351e6e1b.jpeg) ---

Hm, seems like everything’s correct. I’m probably missing someething obvious; I’d recommend getting in touch with support at this point. ---

Just a note: audit logs capture a lot more than just session info. The name “Sessions” for your audit log therefore might be a little deceptive ---

Yeah, the setup was odd with multiple audits, figured I could cull out what we wanted:).
