Hi Community,

I have a question regarding the term "sys_prefix" mentioned in the following documentation: https://www.servicenow.com/docs/bundle/yokohama-platform-security/page/administer/system-logs/task/t...

 

I tried looking for this field/attribute in the "sys_db_object" table, but I was unable to find any information. Could anyone clarify what this represents?

 

Best regards,

Hi @test62 ,

 

This is not an attribute in the table. As per the document the table starts with "sys_" prefix are not audited by default. 

If you want to enable auditing for any of this table you can update the property "glide.ui.audit_deleted_tables" and add table name

The tables start with "sys_" prefix are system tables (E.g. sys_user, sys_user_group, sys_log).

 

Thanks

Anand

@test62 

system tables always start with sys_ in sys_db_object

system tables are excluded from reporting via system property
