### vault.audit.log_request_failure ((#vault-audit-log_request_failure))
| Metric type | Value | Description |
|-------------|--------|---------------------------------------------------------|
| counter | number | Number of audit log request failures across all devices |
|-------------|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| gauge | number | Average (mean) number of audit log request failures across all devices during time period |
The number of request failures is a **crucial metric**.
A non-zero value for `vault.audit.log_request_failure` indicates that all your
configured audit devices failed to log a request (or response). If Vault cannot
A non-zero value for `vault.audit.log_request_failure` indicates that all
the configured audit devices failed to log a request (or response). If Vault cannot
properly audit a request, or the response to a request, the original request
will fail.
The `mean` value for this metric should be monitored, not the `count` which could be misleading.
Refer to the Vault logs and any device-specific metrics to troubleshoot the
failing audit log device.
