Analysis on view vs download

Currently, every time a user views a document containing a file, this action is logged as a download in the audit trail.

While technically correct, this prevents managers / administrators from getting a meaningful audit that reflects actions taken by a user and / or to perform a security audit (e.g., did that person download sensitive content before leaving the company?).

As a developer, I can provide a parameter to the REST API in order to differentiate the different actions available in the UI:

• View
• Download

AC:

• The resulting action is stored as such in the document audit trail
