ActionTrail:Audit events for Data Lake Formation

Last Updated:Aug 20, 2026

Data Lake Formation is integrated with ActionTrail. You can use ActionTrail to query management events that result from user operations in Data Lake Formation. ActionTrail delivers these events to a Simple Log Service (SLS) Logstore or an Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket, which supports real-time auditing and assists in issue analysis.

ActionTrail records management events for operations performed on cloud resources using OpenAPI or the console. The following table describes the Data Lake Formation events that you can query in ActionTrail.
