EntraID: Switch back to previous Audit Logs experience
J

Executive technology leader responsible for platform reliability, cloud operations, security posture, and enterprise technology risk within an investor-backed fintech environment. I lead technology operations at the intersection of engineering execution, governance, and business outcomes — ensuring platforms are scalable, resilient, and trusted by investors, regulators, and clients.

Currently VP of DevOps at InvestorFlow, where I focus on building board-ready technology operations, strengthening risk and resilience, and shaping long-term platform strategy to support growth and regulatory confidence.

Why change to legacy audit logs experience

The biggest flaw in the new Audit Logs experience is that the filters cannot search a value, resulting in manual scrolling.

New experience:

New filter experience with service expanded, showing no search input

Old experience:

Old filter experience with service expanded, showing search input

How to switch back

Within the Audit Logs window, a banner appears at the top:

Banner: Want to switch back to the legacy audit logs experience? Click here to leave the preview.

Click this banner to leave the preview.

You should go from this:

To this:

Old filters

How to go back to the new experience

Where the banner for legacy audit logs experience was before, you should now see a purple banner instead:

Click on the banner to go back to the new experience.

Is this permanent?

No, Microsoft will soon force everyone to the new experience, but customer feedback is encouraged to bring back changes like searching filters.
