Real-Time Context Engine Auditable Event Methods on Confluent Cloud

Confluent Cloud audit logs contain records of auditable events for authentication and authorization actions on Real-Time Context Engine topics. When an auditable event occurs, a message is sent to the audit log and is stored as an audit log record.

The Real-Time Context Engine is a fully managed feature that delivers real-time context from Kafka topics to AI agents. For details, see Real-Time Context Engine in Confluent Cloud.
