How can I track the full skype status history

Question

_{Wednesday, October 23, 2019 9:03 PM}

Hello!  There is an internal investigation requirement that I need to be able to check a user's online status history. 

By pulling the Lync-UccApi-?.UccApilog files, I can see a lot of very verbose status records like this:

10/23/2019|17:01:08.539 7EC:314C INFO  :: Created Async workitem 000002075EE446D0, txn timeout 5000, time sensitive 1, txn (00000207603750D0)

10/23/2019|17:01:08.541 7EC:314C TRACE :: CUccGenericCategoryInstance::FireModifiedEvent - [0x000002076226E1B8] - services
10/23/2019|17:01:08.541 7EC:314C INFO  :: deleting Async workitem 000002075EE446D0

Can anyone help me with the logging keyword/terminology list used in Lync?  which records should I track for status updates (of the local user logged on to the client)?

Thanks!

Hi AnaCybSec,

In my research, you can get the users’ presence via SQL server. To do so, open SQL Management Studio, expand Databases/rtc/Programmability/Stored Procedures/dbo.DiagShowPublisherPresence.

Hi，

In Lync 2013 (also apply for SFB), the following integers are used to indicate the degrees of availability:

Once the user status is changed, let's say from "offline" to "available" a SERVICE message is sent to the pool as Message-Type 'request'- and it looks like this:

The 'availability' attribute in the XML is set to 6500. 6500 is the ordinal that equates to a "Busy" state.
