Read the tenant evidence ledger

GET

/v1/audit

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://example.com/v1/audit?from=1&limit=50' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

• this engine

Reads a page of the tenant evidence ledger. Paging is keyset by SEQUENCE, not a cursor, and the page runs FORWARDS from ?from in ascending sequence order — oldest first. The response carries head_seq, the chain tip, which is what a caller pairs with ?from to address the newest events.

Parameters

Header Parameters

X-Olivares-Tenant

string format: uuid

Target tenant id; required when the principal can act in more than one tenant.

Query Parameters

from

integer

default: 1

Start from this sequence number. The page runs FORWARDS from it, in ascending sequence order; pair it with head_seq to address the newest events.

limit

integer

default: 50 >= 1 <= 1000

Maximum number of items to return.

exclude_action

Array<string>

Omit events whose action starts with this prefix. Repeatable: give it once per action family to leave out. It uses the SAME prefix rule as action, and it filters only what is RETURNED — the ledger still records every event, and a request without this parameter still returns them all. Its use is a caller that must not be shown its own footprint: the console’s notification bell passes exclude_action=audit.read so that reading the ledger does not itself become the newest activity in it.

head_seq

required

The highest sequence number this tenant’s ledger has RECORDED, and 0 when it has never recorded one. from pages FORWARDS (events come back in ascending sequence order), so this is the only field that addresses the END of the chain: request from=max(1, head_seq-N+1)&limit=N and reverse the page to show the newest activity. Read the two bounds of that promise exactly, because a caller who assumes more will be wrong on a real ledger. (1) The window is N SEQUENCE POSITIONS, not N rows: a chain that declares a gap (an in-chain audit.gap marker) skips positions, so the page can come back SHORTER than N with older events still present below it. (2) head_seq is measured before this request’s own self-audit event joins the chain, and it is never behind the highest sequence in items — but it does not identify the exact snapshot the page was read from, because a concurrent append can land between the two reads. It is the RECORDED tip, which on a ledger emptied under a live head is deliberately not the last addressable row.
