Audit log changes for select Google Meet hardware settings

What’s changing 

Recently, we’ve made updates to the Google Meet Hardware audit logs experience. As we continue to make adjustments and remove references to outdated products (ie Chromebox), we are moving audit logs for certain settings from Event > Chromebox for meetings device setting change to Event >
  • Change Application Setting 
  • Create Application Setting 
  • Delete Application Setting  
The Application Setting events




Specifically, these settings are:

Device Settings:  

  • Release channel
  • Display power saving
  • Home screen
  • Call phones

Alerts:  

  • Alert recipients
Example log details for Event > Change Application Setting

Additional details 

Starting August 7, 2025, audit logs will begin to be found under (Change/Create/Delete) Application setting. While we make these updates, there will be a brief period of time where events for these settings will be logged under Chromebox for meetings device setting change and Change application setting (or Create/Delete). Starting August 28, 2025, these audit logs will no longer appear under Chromebox for meetings device setting change.
