Exporting the Adminlog¶

Exports of the Adminlog type contain a list of changes to the AdminClient modules.

The export can be output as a CSV or JSON file.

In addition to the keys described in the Parameter file section, the parameter file can also contain the following keys specifically for this export.

Section Filter¶

In the [Filter] section, the following keys can be configurated:

Key	Values
FilterFrom	Start of the time period according to which entries are to be filtered (as a timestamp in UTC format). The date is included in the filter. To output only the differences to the last export, you can enter the value LastExecution here. The timestamp of the last executed export is entered under this key in the [Result] section.
FilterTo	End of the period according to which entries are to be filtered (as a timestamp in UTC format). The date is not included in the filter.
LastXDays	Period in days for which entries are to be exported.
MaxLines	Maximum number of lines to be exported. Default value is 100,000. This means that if the complete list consists of more than 100,000 entries and nothing is entered here, not all entries are exported, but only 100,000.
