Discussion

The AuditUserType appears in the userType field of AuditSummary and ChangeDetails records. Use it to distinguish manual advertiser-initiated changes from API-driven automation or Apple-initiated actions.

Filter by userType in an AuditQuery to scope results to a specific actor category:

{
  "field": "userType",
  "operator": "IN",
  "value": [
    "CUSTOMER_API"
  ]
}

This is especially useful when auditing API-driven changes independently of UI actions.
