Did you Know

In SharePoint Online there is no easy way for a Site Collection Administrator, Power User, or Regular User to directly view the audit logs of a document, folder or list item. Audit logs must be requested from a Security / Audit level user who runs a report through Microsoft Purview Compliance Portal. There are no end-user friendly ways to access audit information.
