When a user inside the tenant generates an operation the User’s name is N/A, but this is an invitation made by a user in this tenant, therefore the operation log. How can I get the user who performed the action user’s name to show up? Is it a configuration issue?

Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi @fabio.santos,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

You are correct when mentioning that when making an API Operation the user’s name shows up as N/A when checking the logs. However when checking an api operation that has the `“channel”`set to `“``https://manage.auth0.com/”` you can check the **auth**  **object** that will include the tenant administrator’s information, such as the name as well.

In order to list the name of the administrator user name that made any type of api changes directly in the logs you can use the [Delegated Administration Extension](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/extensions/delegated-administration-extension) by taking advantage of the [Hook Extensibility](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/extensions/delegated-administration-extension/delegated-administration-hooks), more specifically the [Access Hook](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/extensions/delegated-administration-extension/delegated-administration-hooks/delegated-administration-access-hook).

Here are the relevant knowledge articles that worth following:

- [How to Filter Logs for Operations Performed by Tenant Administrators](https://community.auth0.com/t/how-to-filter-logs-for-operations-performed-by-tenant-administrators/155126)

- [How to Determine the User that Performed Change via Delegated Admin Portal](https://community.auth0.com/t/how-to-determine-the-user-that-performed-change-via-delegated-admin-portal/160536)

I hope this suits your use case!

Kind regards,

Remus
