4.173 AUDIT_ACTIONS

AUDIT_ACTIONS describes audit trail action type codes. This table can be used to map action type numbers to action type names.

Note:

The mapping explained in this view is valid for audit trail records from the following views only, and such audit records are generated only when unified auditing is not enabled:

  • DBA_AUDIT_TRAIL

  • DBA_COMMON_AUDIT_TRAIL

  • DBA_FGA_AUDIT_TRAIL

  • USER_AUDIT_TRAIL

  • V$XML_AUDIT_TRAIL

Note:

This view is relevant when using traditional auditing. Traditional auditing is deprecated in Oracle Database 21c. Oracle recommends that you instead use unified auditing, which enables selective and more effective auditing inside Oracle Database.
