The v1 version of the Organization Policy API is hosted under cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com, see the Resource Manager audit logging page for more details.

Service name

Organization Policy Service audit logs use the service name orgpolicy.googleapis.com. Filter for this service:

    protoPayload.serviceName="orgpolicy.googleapis.com"
  

Methods by permission type

Each IAM permission has a type property, whose value is an enum that can be one of four values: ADMIN_READ, ADMIN_WRITE, DATA_READ, or DATA_WRITE. When you call a method, Organization Policy Service generates an audit log whose category is dependent on the type property of the permission required to perform the method. Methods that require an IAM permission with the type property value of DATA_READ, DATA_WRITE, or ADMIN_READ generate Data Access audit logs. Methods that require an IAM permission with the type property value of ADMIN_WRITE generate Admin Activity audit logs.
