# EnvelopeAuditEvents

The EnvelopeAuditEvent API method enables API users to request the events performed on an envelope. The events are returned in an XML document.

**`C#`**

```csharp title="C#"
// Create and send envelope as shown in linked code
DocuSignWeb.EnvelopeStatus status = <create and send envelope>;

// Request the audit history
XmlNode result = _apiClient.EnvelopeAuditEvents(status.EnvelopeID);

// Display audit events
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
XmlTextWriter xmlTextWriter = new XmlTextWriter(stringWriter);
xmlTextWriter.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
result.WriteTo(xmlTextWriter);
xmlTextWriter.Flush();
Console.Write(stringWriter.ToString());
```

**`PHP`**

```php title="PHP"
// Create and send an envelope as shown in linked code
$response = <create and send envelope>;
$createResult = $response->CreateAndSendEnvelopeResult;

// Send and request audit history
$envelopeAuditEventsparams = new EnvelopeAuditEvents();
$envelopeAuditEventsparams->EnvelopeId = $createResult->EnvelopeID;
$response = $api->EnvelopeAuditEvents($envelopeAuditEventsparams);
```
