    Hi @aaron ,

    1. Extend auditlog entity. add ApplicationName Property
    2. want to save auditlog to entity with applicationName value

    using System;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using Abp.Auditing;
    using Abp.Domain.Repositories;
    
    namespace CompanyName.ProjectName.Extended.Auditing
    {
        public class ExtendedAuditStore : AuditingStore
        {
            public ExtendedAuditStore(IRepository<AuditLog, long> auditLogRepository) : base(auditLogRepository)
            {
            }
    
            public override Task SaveAsync(ExtendedAuditInfo auditInfo)
            {
                var result = base.SaveAsync(auditInfo);
    
                return result;
            }   
        }
    }

    Hi @Verrrrrrrrrrrrrdi, you can use CustomData field for your additional fields. And also you can use ClientName for your ApplicationName filed.

    Unfortunately you can't use existing AuditingStore to save extended AuditLog entity. Even if you pass ExtendedAuditLog entity, it is converted to new AuditEntity in AuditingStore. Because there are following lines in AuditingStore in ABP:

    public virtual Task SaveAsync(AuditInfo auditInfo)
            {
                return _auditLogRepository.InsertAsync(AuditLog.CreateFromAuditInfo(auditInfo));
            }

    public static AuditLog CreateFromAuditInfo(AuditInfo auditInfo)
            {
                var exceptionMessage = auditInfo.Exception != null ? auditInfo.Exception.ToString() : null;
                return new AuditLog
                       {
                           TenantId = auditInfo.TenantId,
                           UserId = auditInfo.UserId,
                           ServiceName = auditInfo.ServiceName.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxServiceNameLength),
                           MethodName = auditInfo.MethodName.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxMethodNameLength),
                           Parameters = auditInfo.Parameters.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxParametersLength),
                           ExecutionTime = auditInfo.ExecutionTime,
                           ExecutionDuration = auditInfo.ExecutionDuration,
                           ClientIpAddress = auditInfo.ClientIpAddress.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxClientIpAddressLength),
                           ClientName = auditInfo.ClientName.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxClientNameLength),
                           BrowserInfo = auditInfo.BrowserInfo.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxBrowserInfoLength),
                           Exception = exceptionMessage.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxExceptionLength),
                           ImpersonatorUserId = auditInfo.ImpersonatorUserId,
                           ImpersonatorTenantId = auditInfo.ImpersonatorTenantId,
                           CustomData = auditInfo.CustomData.TruncateWithPostfix(MaxCustomDataLength)

    Inject IRepository<ExtendedAuditInfo, long> auditLogRepository

    public ExtendedAuditStore(IRepository<ExtendedAuditInfo , long> auditLogRepository) : base(auditLogRepository)
            {
            }
        public override Task SaveAsync(ExtendedAuditInfo auditInfo)
            {
               // var result = base.SaveAsync(auditInfo);
           ---> do your custom insert <---
    
    
                return result;
            }

    Hi @alper,

    I got this error message when implementing your code

    cannot be used as type parameter ‘TEntity’ in the generic type or method ‘IRepository<TEntity, PrimaryKey>’. There is no implicit reference conversion from ‘ExtendedAuditInfo’ to ‘Abp.Domain.Entities.IEntity<long>’

    can you show what you did in SaveAsync method

    public override Task SaveAsync(ExtendedAuditInfo auditInfo)
            {      
           ---> do your custom insert <--- 
            }

    It should be IRepository<ExtendedAuditLog, long> since AuditInfo is not an entity.

    If you don't want to use CustomData (as suggested by @alirizaadiyahsi), you have to do your custom insert (as suggested by @alper). You should override Task SaveAsync(AuditInfo auditInfo) to save your ExtendedAuditLog, but NOT call base.SaveAsync(auditInfo).
