What’s changing
Beginning today, you can now access log events for the new data migration service in the audit and investigation tool and the security investigation tool. You can search across a variety of attributes including:
- Who started a migration
- What data is being migrated
- When the migration was set up or executed, and more.
Log events give admins clear insight into data migration activities in their organization, providing insights into who initiated the migration, the type of data involved, the migration progress, and even allows for proactive issue triaging and resolution.
For Google Workspace customers with access to the security investigation tool, you can find more information on each migrated object, troubleshoot issues, create custom rules, and more. And for select Google Workspace customers, log events can be exported to BigQuery for further analysis and custom reporting. See below for more information on availability.
