Enhance search in the audit event screen
Release notes
Problem to solve
The audit event search functionality is confusing to users, since it is really a filtered search but appears to be a freeform text search. This means users will attempt to do a freeform text search, receive all events instead of the relevant ones, and get confused. It also means it is difficult for them to find the audit events that they care about quickly.
Proposal
Enhance the audit search bar to do the following:
- Allow freeform text to be used in the search bar of the audit event screen. When freeform text search is entered, search on the
action
attribute. - Add a new filter for
object
- Add a new filter for
target
- Add a new filter for
ip_address
