# audit enable
The `audit enable` command enables an audit device at a given path. If an audit
device already exists at the given path, an error is returned. Additional
options for configuring the audit device are provided as `KEY=VALUE`. Each audit
device declares its own set of configuration options.
Once an audit device is enabled, almost every request and response will be
logged to the device.
## Examples
Enable the audit device "file" enabled at "file/":
```text
$ vault audit enable file file_path=/tmp/my-file.txt
Success! Enabled the file audit device at: file/
```
## Usage
The following flags are available in addition to the [standard set of
flags](/docs/commands) included on all commands.
- `-description` `(string: "")` - Human-friendly description for the purpose of
this audit device.
- `-local` `(bool: false)` - Mark the audit device as a local-only device.
Local devices are not replicated or removed by replication.
- `-path` `(string: "")` - Place where the audit device will be accessible. This
must be unique across all audit devices. This defaults to the "type" of the
audit device.
