If the Purge button for the Audit Log is not displayed, where do you configure permissions to purge entries?

• A. Audit Log > Purge
• B. System > Audit
• C. User Mgmt > Permission Sets > John's permission set > Audit Log
• D. Security > Logs

Answer: (C)

Purge rights for the Audit Log are controlled by permissions assigned to a user through a permission set. If the Purge button isn’t shown, it means the user’s permission set doesn’t grant the purge permission for the Audit Log. The way to enable this is to edit the user’s permission set and turn on the Audit Log purge permission there. That’s why the correct path is in the User Mgmt area, opening the specific permission set (John’s) and then the Audit Log section to enable purge.

Other areas aren’t where you grant this kind of permission. The Audit Log > Purge path is where the action occurs if you already have permission, not where you assign it. System > Audit and Security > Logs relate to configuring or viewing audit settings and logs, not to per-user purge permissions.
