Activity tracking events for {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}}

{: #at_events}

{{site.data.keyword.cloud_notm}} services, such as {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}}, generate activity tracking events. {: shortdesc}

Activity tracking events report on activities that change the state of a service in {{site.data.keyword.cloud_notm}}. You can use the events to investigate abnormal activity and critical actions and to comply with regulatory audit requirements.

You can use {{site.data.keyword.atracker_full_notm}}, a platform service, to route auditing events in your account to destinations of your choice by configuring targets and routes that define where activity tracking events are sent. For more information, see About {{site.data.keyword.atracker_full_notm}}.

You can use {{site.data.keyword.logs_full_notm}} to visualize and alert on events that are generated in your account and routed by {{site.data.keyword.atracker_full_notm}} to an {{site.data.keyword.logs_full_notm}} instance.

Locations where activity tracking events are generated

{: #at-locations}

Activity tracking events for {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}} are generated in the us-east region.

Viewing activity tracking events for {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}}

{: #at-viewing}

You can use {{site.data.keyword.logs_full_notm}} to visualize and alert on events that are generated in your account and routed by {{site.data.keyword.atracker_full_notm}} to an {{site.data.keyword.logs_full_notm}} instance.

Events for model alignment

{: #at_actions_model_alignment}

The following table lists the activity tracking events that are generated when you perform model alignment operations in {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}}. These events track actions related to managing models, taxonomies, and synthetic data generation (SDG) throughout the model alignment workflow. The events also include {{site.data.keyword.cos_short}} operations that occur when {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}} accesses or stores data in your connected storage buckets during the alignment process.

Action	Description
instructlab.model.read	An event is generated when you read details of a model training run.
instructlab.model.list	An event is generated when you list model training runs.
instructlab.model.create	An event is generated when you create a model training run.
instructlab.model.delete	An event is generated when you delete a model training run.
instructlab.model.stop	An event is generated when you stop a model training run.
cloud-object-storage.bucket.get	An event is generated when you list all the objects in a bucket.
cloud-object-storage.object.put	An event is generated when you write and upload objects.
cloud-object-storage.object.get	An event is generated when you view and download objects.
instructlab.taxonomy.read	An event is generated when you read details of a taxonomy.
instructlab.taxonomy.list	An event is generated when you list taxonomies.
instructlab.taxonomy.create	An event is generated when you create taxonomies.
instructlab.taxonomy.delete	An event is generated when you delete taxonomies.
instructlab.sdgdata.read	An event is generated when you read details of a data generation run.
instructlab.sdgdata.list	An event is generated when you list data generation runs.
instructlab.sdgdata.create	An event is generated when you create a data generation run.

Events for inference

{: #at_actions_inference}

The following table lists the activity tracking events that are generated when you perform inference operations in {{site.data.keyword.instructlab_short}}. These events track actions related to managing inference models and creating, reading, and deleting inference requests. Use these events to monitor how your aligned models are being deployed and used for inference workloads.

Action	Description
instructlab.inference-model.read	An event is generated when you get a model by its identifier.
instructlab.inference-model.list	An event is generated when you list models using the OpenAI API.
instructlab.inference.create	An event is generated when you generate an OpenAI-compatible chat completion for the given messages using the specified model.
instructlab.inference.read	An event is generated when you describe a chat completion by its ID.
instructlab.inference.list	An event is generated when you list chat completions.
instructlab.inference.delete	An event is generated when you delete a stored chat completion.
instructlab.inference-session.read	An event is generated when internal APIs are used for storing session read state in the UI.
instructlab.inference-session.list	An event is generated when internal APIs are used for storing session list state for the UI.
instructlab.inference-session.delete	An event is generated when internal APIs are used for storing session delete state in the UI.
