Exported events data is missing certain column information in Cloud Director

Products

• VMware Cloud Director

Issue/Introduction

• Events history exported using the "Data Exporter" feature does not show all of the expected data in the resulting CSV export file.
• Data from the following columns is missing: 
  • 'Owner''
  • 'Orgname'
  • 'Type'
  • 'Target'
  • 'Occurred At'

Environment

VMware Cloud Director 10.x

Cause

This issue occurs as the export function is unable to process certain data during the export which results in it being dropped from the resulting CSV file.

Resolution

This matter is resolved in Cloud Director 10.4 which is available for download here.

To workaround this issue utilize the API to retrieve the data. 

1. Events data can be viewed using the AuditTrail API https://{api_host}/cloudapi/1.0.0/auditTrail. For additional information see the AuditTrail documentation.
2. Tasks can be viewed using the API query service (type=task query) . For additional information see the Typed Queries documentation.
