function Get-HawkUserMailboxAuditing { <# .SYNOPSIS Gathers Mailbox Audit data if enabled for the user. .DESCRIPTION Retrieves mailbox audit logs from Microsoft 365 Unified Audit Log, focusing on mailbox content access and operations. This function replaces the deprecated Search-MailboxAuditLog cmdlet with modern UAL-based auditing. Migration Changes: - Old: Used Search-MailboxAuditLog for direct mailbox audit log access - New: Uses Search-UnifiedAuditLog with separate collection of: * ExchangeItem records (item-level operations) * ExchangeItemGroup records (access patterns) The new implementation provides: - Improved visibility into mailbox item access patterns - More consistent data collection across Exchange Online - Automatic pagination for large result sets - Integration with Microsoft 365 compliance center - Separated output files for better data analysis Note: Administrative actions on mailboxes (like granting permissions) are tracked by Get-HawkUserAdminAudit instead of this function. .PARAMETER UserPrincipalName Single UPN of a user, comma-separated list of UPNs, or array of objects that contain UPNs. .OUTPUTS ExchangeItem Records: File: ExchangeItem_Simple_{User}.csv/.json Path: \<User> Description: Flattened item-level operations data in CSV and JSON formats File: ExchangeItem_Logs_{User}.csv/.json Path: \<User> Description: Raw item-level operations data in CSV and JSON formats ExchangeItemGroup Records: File: ExchangeItemGroup_Simple_{User}.csv/.json Path: \<User> Description: Flattened access pattern data in CSV and JSON formats File: ExchangeItemGroup_Logs_{User}.csv/.json Path: \<User> Description: Raw access pattern data in CSV and JSON formats .EXAMPLE Get-HawkUserMailboxAuditing -UserPrincipalName user@contoso.com Search for all Mailbox Audit logs from user@contoso.com, creating separate files for item operations and access patterns, each with both raw and processed formats. .EXAMPLE Get-HawkUserMailboxAuditing -UserPrincipalName (Get-Mailbox -Filter {CustomAttribute1 -eq "C-level"}) Search for all Mailbox Audit logs for all users who have "C-Level" set in CustomAttribute1, creating separate output files for each user's item operations and access patterns. .NOTES In older versions of Exchange Online, Search-MailboxAuditLog provided direct access to mailbox audit data. This has been replaced by the Unified Audit Log which provides a more comprehensive and consistent view of mailbox activities through separate record types: - ExchangeItem: Tracks specific operations on items - ExchangeItemGroup: Tracks access patterns and aggregated activity Each record type is processed separately and output in multiple formats to support different analysis needs: - Simple (flattened) formats for easy analysis - Raw formats for detailed investigation - JSON dumps for programmatic processing #> [CmdletBinding()] param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [array]$UserPrincipalName ) Test-EXOConnection Send-AIEvent -Event "CmdRun" # Verify our UPN input [array]$UserArray = Test-UserObject -ToTest $UserPrincipalName foreach ($Object in $UserArray) { [string]$User = $Object.UserPrincipalName Out-LogFile ("Attempting to Gather Mailbox Audit logs for: " + $User) -action # Test if mailbox auditing is enabled $mbx = Get-Mailbox -Identity $User if ($mbx.AuditEnabled -eq $true) { Out-LogFile "Mailbox Auditing is enabled." -Information try { # Get the user's folder path $UserFolder = Join-Path -Path $Hawk.FilePath -ChildPath $User if (-not (Test-Path -Path $UserFolder)) { New-Item -Path $UserFolder -ItemType Directory -Force | Out-Null } # Process ExchangeItem records Out-LogFile "Searching Unified Audit Log for ExchangeItem events." -action $searchCommand = "Search-UnifiedAuditLog -UserIds $User -RecordType ExchangeItem" $itemLogs = Get-AllUnifiedAuditLogEntry -UnifiedSearch $searchCommand if ($itemLogs.Count -gt 0) { Out-LogFile ("Found " + $itemLogs.Count + " ExchangeItem events.") -Information # Process and output flattened data $ParsedItemLogs = $itemLogs | Get-SimpleUnifiedAuditLog if ($ParsedItemLogs) { $ParsedItemLogs | Out-MultipleFileType -FilePrefix "ExchangeItem_Simple" -csv -json -User $User } # Output raw data $itemLogs | Out-MultipleFileType -FilePrefix "ExchangeItem_Logs" -csv -json -User $User } else { Out-LogFile "No ExchangeItem events found." -Information } # Process ExchangeItemGroup records Out-LogFile "Searching Unified Audit Log for ExchangeItemGroup events." -action $searchCommand = "Search-UnifiedAuditLog -UserIds $User -RecordType ExchangeItemGroup" $groupLogs = Get-AllUnifiedAuditLogEntry -UnifiedSearch $searchCommand if ($groupLogs.Count -gt 0) { Out-LogFile ("Found " + $groupLogs.Count + " ExchangeItemGroup events.") -Information # Process and output flattened data $ParsedGroupLogs = $groupLogs | Get-SimpleUnifiedAuditLog if ($ParsedGroupLogs) { $ParsedGroupLogs | Out-MultipleFileType -FilePrefix "ExchangeItemGroup_Simple" -csv -json -User $User } # Output raw data $groupLogs | Out-MultipleFileType -FilePrefix "ExchangeItemGroup_Logs" -csv -json -User $User } else { Out-LogFile "No ExchangeItemGroup events found." -Information } # Summary logging $totalEvents = ($itemLogs.Count + $groupLogs.Count) Out-LogFile "Completed processing $totalEvents total events." -Information } catch { Out-LogFile "Error retrieving audit logs: $($_.Exception.Message)" -isError Write-Error -ErrorRecord $_ -ErrorAction Continue } } else { Out-LogFile ("Auditing not enabled for " + $User) -Information Out-LogFile "Enable auditing to track mailbox access patterns." -Information } } } |
