Auditing lets you activate additional SharePoint auditing events to improve the results of your Audit Report. If you don't need one or multiple events to be audited anymore, the feature can be deactivated at any time through the Explore screen.
Prerequisite(s)
- Your environment is a SharePoint 2010 or above on-premises farm (auditing is not supported on Microsoft 365).
- You have site collection admin permissions on your targeted site collection(s).
- You are connected to your site collection(s) or SharePoint central admin.
Note: Site collection admin permissions are required even if you have higher admin privileges like Farm admin permissions. For more information, see Microsoft administrative permissions.
Tip: To manage all your site collections, you can connect to your SharePoint central admin with Farm admin permissions.
