Not exactly sure what you are asking.

LF AuditTrail logs activities in and on the repository based on user/group auditing settings. This has nothing to do with the way the user is connected to the repository (Desktop Client, Web Client, SDK, other).

If your second question is about preventing them from creating their own connector profiles, then yes. During the Connector install, you can choose not to install the profile creation piece.

Thanks Bert. The specific use-case that my client is worried about is corporate theft - namely an unscrupulous employee using the Integration Connector to copy the client list... is this possible? And if it happened, would they have an audit trail of it happening?

The Laserfiche Connector is a tool to pass information into the client (Desktop, Web, or Scanning) from screen scraping another application, or screen scraping the client (Desktop, Web or Scanning) to pass information to other applications. It does not connect directly to the Laserfiche repository or back end DB, so it does not bypass security or audittrail in any way and it only has access to data in the form/application they are viewing.

They would not have to have connector to get a client list. They would just need the LF client and a login with permissions to all the client folders. So the real issue is a question of permissions and security.

As to using AuditTrail to get a report of if a users exported a client listing, that would depend on auditing configuration and would be a bit trickier to get a conclusive conclusion from the report data. I would highly recommend that you install a demo system using your VAR license and do your own testing to familiarize yourself with the products and how they all work.
