How do you want to record that? Log files, a database somewhere?

We don't use Ktor, also I need the audit in the database and not just logs because it needs to be added as a history to the bottom of most pages, as well as a browsable overall table. I guess I'll just abstract the database call and write the audit entries alongside it or something simple like this.
