View and export activity logs

Who can use this feature

Available on the Organization and Enterprise plans

Only organization admins can view activity logs

Activity logs provide a record of how members and guests interact with organization files and resources.

  • See when people access, copy, and share files.
  • Track any changes made to team administration and settings.
  • Track any changes made to team, project and file permissions.
  • View actions taken by specific members.
  • Track changes made by organization admin to organization-level settings.
  • Identify and prevent misuse of any organization resources.

Monitor security at scale with the Activity Logs API. On the Enterprise plan, organization admins can use the Activity Logs API to protect their organization’s creative work. Use this API to identify anomalous events faster, build an internal application, and create security rules.

View activity logs

Access activity logs in the Activity tab of the organization's Admin.

  1. From the file browser, click Admin in the left sidebar.
  2. Click Activity in the left sidebar.
  3. Use the fields to filter results by your desired criteria. Choose from:
    • Member: Enter an email address to view any events related to that person. These can be actions they have taken, or actions taken by someone else that apply to them.
    • Date: Enter a start and end date to see results for a specific date range. 
    • Events: Select a specific type of event. Explore tracked events ↓
    • Team: Select a team to view activity within that specific team.

The Activity tab of Figma admin, showing user activity such as when files were viewed.

Note: Admins can also view recent activity for a specific member or guest in the People tab. If they click to see more activity, Figma will open the Activity tab with that person's email address already populated.

Activity log events

The activity log begins tracking events as soon as you've upgraded to the Organization or Enterprise plans. 

Note: Activity logs don't track events on Starter or Professional teams and cannot be retroactively applied after upgrading to an Organization or Enterprise plan.

For every event in the activity log, you'll see:

  • The type of event that took place.
  • The team member's name and email address. This could be the person that took the action, or the person the event applies to.
  • Date and time the event occurred. All times are shown in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
  • Product the event relates to, if applicable.
  • The Team the event relates to, if applicable.
  • IP address of the related team member.

Activity log header with member, date, product, team, and IP details

Note: It's not possible to review activity logs for individual members after they have been removed from an organization.

Members

  • Members signed in or signed out

Note: Figma doesn't record login events for guests of the organization. Figma also doesn't track when a member closes a browser window or exits Figma without logging out.

Export the activity log to CSV

You can export a copy of your activity log to CSV. This is a great option if you want to explore the data in a spreadsheet or other tool.

The export will include all events within the date range you select, and will ignore other filters you may have applied on the Activity page. To request an export:

  1. If required, click the Last 30 days filter and select a different time period, or select Custom to enter your own start and end dates.
  2. Click Get CSV in the top-right corner of the screen. 
  3. Figma will email you the activity log in CSV format.

Activity Logs API

The Activity Logs API provides programmatic access to your organization's activity logs. Activity logs allow you to see how people are accessing and using your organization. You can use the Activity Logs API to build your own custom applications. 

To learn more about using the Activity Logs API, check out the Figma REST API documentation.
