 # Investigate activities
 
 
-
 Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps gives you visibility into all the activities from your connected apps. After you connect Defender for Cloud Apps to an app using the App connector, Defender for Cloud Apps scans all the activities that happened - the retroactive scan period differs per app - and then it's updated constantly with new activities.
 
 > [!NOTE]
-> For a full list of Microsoft 365 activities monitored by Defender for Cloud Apps, see [Search the audit log in the compliance center](/microsoft-365/compliance/search-the-audit-log-in-security-and-compliance#audited-activities).
+> The activity types (such as `FileCreated`, `FileCreatedOnNetworkShare`, `ArchiveCreated`, or `FileDeleted`) and their associated data are sourced directly from the connected app’s third-party API (for example, Salesforce or ServiceNow).
+>
+> Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps displays these activity names and types exactly as received and doesn't define or modify them. To understand the meaning of an activity, refer to the relevant third‑party API documentation.

 The **Activity log** can be filtered to enable you to find specific activities. You create policies based on the activities and then define what you want to be alerted about and act on. You can search for activities performed on certain files. The type of activities and the information we get for each activity depends on the app and what kind of data the app can provide.
 
 For example, you can use the **Activity log** to find users in your organization who are using operating systems or browsers that are out of date, as follows:
 After you connect an app to Defender for Cloud Apps in the **Activity log** page, use the advanced filter and select **User agent tag**. Then select **Outdated browser** or **Outdated operating system**.
