    You can view the Current User Activity in the Admin Console under the Monitoring section.

    You can view the details in the system logs in the login-audit.csv

    You can use the admin_console_*.csv to see any changes.

    But just to see which pages/sections were accessed, I think your best best is the tomcat-access.log.

    All requests that are processed by the application server are logged to tomcat-access.log in <APPIAN_HOME>/logs. Tomcat access logs give you information about who has access to your application, what resources were accessed, the IP, queries, date, etc.

    Hi [mention:ada60681a1094214a690eb267982b97b:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] ,

    Not all interactions are logged at a detailed page-view level by default. Usually audits only capture the activity when something is changed.

    You can check the following logs in System Logs section.

    Logs That Capture User Activity:

    1. login-audit.csv - capture login activity like username, timestamp, status.
    2. In audit/  folder you can see admin_console_audit.csv - which gives you audit in admin console. etc

    You can check the picture attached : 

    Go to System Logs: audit/



    Hope this helps you!!!
