Activity Report

Activity Report keeps track of all daily cloud account activities and lets you download daily activity report. At the end of each month, all daily activity reports will be consolidated into one monthly report for download.

The activity logs recorded in the reports are in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and the time zone used in the FortiCWP Activity page is the same as where you reside. Make sure to perform time conversion before finding the same activity logs on FortiCWP Activity page.

For example, 9/16/2020 00:00 to 9/16/2020 23:59 UTC would be equivalent to 9/15/2020 17:00 to 9/16/2020 16:59 PST.
