Before v5 it used to be that log_file.log included the username of who logged in and was viewing cameras.

Now in v5 this info is no longer included in the log.  We were using nxlog to trigger an HTTP request when certain usernames were found in the log line such as...

INFO QnMServerResourceDiscoveryManager:  username_here

  This was necessary for compliance that guards were logging in to view cameras during their shift.

I don't see a way to create an Event based on user logged in or user viewing a camera.

How can we re-gain this functionality?

  Hi @...,

  We would recommend using the REST API and more specific the /api/auditLog API documentation to achieve your goals.

  The system logs are intended for troubleshooting purposes only, and might change overtime for various reasons. Removing specific personal information that is accessible without authentication seems a logical step to be removed from system logs.
