## Problem to solve Organizations need assurance that users of GitLab are in compliance with policies they've set on the instance. Currently, instances use application and [audit logs](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/audit_events) to solve for this need; however, neither are available through an API. This makes manual exploration the primary method for investigation, and GitLab should enable proactive monitoring of audit events. ## Proposal * Create an API endpoint for fetching audit events. * The endpoint's response should be all relevant audit events that match the query in the get request. * Return all relevant events for a group, project, user, or time range. ## References Zendesk issue: https://gitlab.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/13199 GitHub: https://help.github.com/en/articles/reviewing-the-audit-log-for-your-organization#using-the-audit-log-api
