What’s changing
In addition to the recent announcement of audit logs for API-based actions, we’re introducing the ability for admins to see new audit logs in Google Drive for activity triggered by Gemini for Google Workspace.
For example, if Gemini for Google Workspace accesses data from a set of files in response to a user query, an ‘item content accessed’ event is generated for each of the accessed files in the Drive log events.

Why it matters
These new audit logs offer admins greater transparency into how Gemini for Google Workspace and Gemini apps leverage your content from Drive, providing granular visibility for security and compliance.
Gemini leverages the content of your Drive to provide more personalized responses based on your prompts. These logs focus on instances where Gemini specifically accesses Drive files on behalf of users to fulfill their requests.
