Audit Log
Audit Log shows a history of security and account activity for your Play Digital Signage user and team — so you can see who did what, from where, and when.
Think of Audit Log as a security journal for your account. It records actions such as logins, password or email changes, and (on the team side) content and team changes like playlists, groups, members, and screens. Each entry includes details that help you investigate: what happened, which user did it, IP address, country, browser, and time.
Our Audit Log for digital signage works much like an audit trail.
You need:
- Access to https://my.playsignage.com (signed in)
- An Ultimate subscription to view the log entries (see Plan requirement below)
- For the full Team Log, an Owner or Administrator role (members see a more limited view)
Open Audit Log
Step 1 — Go to your account menu
- Sign in at https://my.playsignage.com
- In the lower-left corner of the sidebar, click your name (for example, Lars) — your role is shown under the name (for example, Owner)
Tip: The menu at the top of the sidebar (team name dropdown) is for switching teams (Create New Team, team names). That is not where Audit Log lives.
Step 2 — Choose Audit Log
In the profile menu, click Audit Log (shield icon).
TEAM LOG vs USER LOG
Use the tabs under the blue header.
TEAM LOG
TEAM LOG is the team’s activity history — screens, content, and team management.Examples of what you may see (depending on what your team has done):
- Who created or edited a playlist
- Who edited a group
- Who invited a team member
- Who published to a screen
- Other team and content actions
- Owners and Administrators can see actions across the team
- Members typically see only actions they performed themselves
USER LOG
USER LOG is private to you. Only you see it. It focuses on your user account security events, such as:- Login attempts
- Email changes
- Password changes
- Related account security actions
Entries include the timestamp and the IP address of the computer where the action happened (and related browser / location fields when available)
Why you might not see older entries
Audit Log was added in April 2020. Actions before that date were not collected, so they will not appear.
What Audit Log is not
- It is not a live screen preview or playlist editor
- It does not replace Analytics (usage/performance) or Alerts (notifications)
- On a non-Ultimate plan you can open the page, but you will not see event rows until you upgrade
- In the current UI there is no separate export, search, or date-filter control on the Audit Log page itself — you review the log in the app under TEAM LOG / USER LOG
The user audit log contains the history of actions related to your user account. Only you can see it. You’ll be able to find out about login attempts, email changes, password changes, and more, complete with the exact timestamp and IP address of the computer from which the action was performed.
The team audit log displays events related to your screens and your content. You’ll be able to see things like who created what playlist, edited what group, invited which member, published which screen, and much more. What you see also depends on your role in the team. Users with member levels can see only the actions they performed, whereas administrators and owners see the actions of the entire team.
Why can’t I see entries before April 2020?
We added this functionality in April 2020; we did not collect actions before that.
Get started designing your content
Most people think designing content for digital signage is super difficult, but if you can use Powerpoint, you can also create and design your own content in our editor.
