DESCRIPTION

The Set-AzureRmSqlDatabaseAuditing cmdlet changes the auditing settings of an Azure SQL database. To use the cmdlet, use the ResourceGroupName ,

ServerName , and DatabaseName parameters to identify the database. Specify the StorageAccountName parameter to specify the storage account for the

audit logs and the StorageKeyType parameter to define the storage keys. Use the State parameter to enable/disable the policy.



You can also define retention for the audit logs by setting the value of the RetentionInDays parameter to define the period for the audit logs.



After the cmdlet runs successfully, auditing of the database is enabled. If the cmdlet succeeds and you use the PassThru parameter, it returns an

object describing the current blob auditing policy in addition to the database identifiers. Database identifiers include, but are not limited to,

ResourceGroupName , ServerName , and DatabaseName .





PARAMETERS

-AuditAction <String[]>

The set of audit actions.

The supported actions to audit are:

SELECT

UPDATE

INSERT

DELETE

EXECUTE

RECEIVE

REFERENCES

The general form for defining an action to be audited is:



[action] ON [object] BY [principal]



Note that [object] in the above format can refer to an object like a table, view, or stored procedure, or an entire database or schema. For

the latter cases, the forms DATABASE::[dbname] and SCHEMA::[schemaname] are used, respectively.



For example:

SELECT on dbo.myTable by public

SELECT on DATABASE::myDatabase by public

SELECT on SCHEMA::mySchema by public

For more information, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/re ... and-action

s#database-level-audit-actions.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value None

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-AuditActionGroup <AuditActionGroups[]>

The recommended set of action groups to use is the following combination - this will audit all the queries and stored procedures executed

against the database, as well as successful and failed logins:



"BATCH_COMPLETED_GROUP",

"SUCCESSFUL_DATABASE_AUTHENTICATION_GROUP",

"FAILED_DATABASE_AUTHENTICATION_GROUP"

This above combination is also the set that is configured by default. These groups cover all SQL statements and stored procedures executed

against the database, and should not be used in combination with other groups as this will result in duplicate audit logs. For more

information, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/re ... ns#databas

e-level-audit-action-groups.
