Feature Description
Support for sign-in events

CloudTrail now records attempts to sign into the AWS Management Console, the AWS Discussion Forums, and the AWS Support Center. All IAM user sign-in attempts (successes and failures), all federated user sign-in events (successes and failures), and all successful root sign-in attempts generate records in CloudTrail. CloudTrail does not, however, record root sign-in failures. For more information, see AWS Console Sign-in Events.

Upgrade of eventVersion to version 1.02

The CloudTrail eventVersion field has been upgraded to version 1.02 and three new fields have been added. The eventType field specifies the type of event that generated the event record. The apiVersion field identifies the API version number associated with the eventType field. The recipientAccountID field represents the account ID that received the event. For more information, see Record Body Contents.
