Recent Activity Event Logs
This document provides an overview of events within the Gigs platform, detailing their significance, how to access them, and their implications for users and developers.
What are Events?
In general, events represent actions that have been taken, either as a direct result of an API request or due to other occurrences within the system.
When are Events Logged?
Gigs logs one or more events in your project under the following circumstances:
An API request is made, or a scheduled change or renewal is actioned.
Unscheduled events that reflect occurrences outside of an API request, such as when a subscription is activated or a payment is successfully processed.
What Details Can I See in Events?
Each event includes a created timestamp along with the complete event object payload, providing comprehensive information about the action taken.
How Can I Use Events?
Events are instrumental in understanding the sequence and scope of changes or updates to a given resource. This information is particularly valuable for developers during debugging and support investigations.
Where Can I See Events in the Dashboard?
The complete list of events for a project can be accessed in the Events tab. This list can be filtered by resource or event type and is sorted from newest to oldest.
Additionally, you can view the most recent 10 events related to a specific resource’s detail page (e.g., subscriptions, payments, users, SIMs, etc.) in a section titled “Recent Activity” located at the bottom of the page. If there are more than 10 events related to a given resource, you can click on the “View all” link, which will direct you to the Events tab with a filter applied for that particular resource.
How Frequently is the Log and Dashboard Updated?
The log is updated in near real-time as requests are processed. The dashboard visualizations refresh every few minutes to display the latest data from the logs.
Is My API Usage Data Private and Secure?
Only authenticated users can view Recent Activity logs, and they can only access data for projects to which they have been granted access.
Can I Create Customized Views of My API Data?
Currently, customized views of API data are not available. However, we encourage you to reach out to us with your specific needs, and we will be happy to assist you.
