How to audit vSphere API usage?

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to audit who is calling vSphere APIs and what they are doing?

I found the following blog which seemed to be just what I was looking for however when running the script provided in the blog, there response is empty and I assume it isn't because there are no API running in the environment. It is reasonable size environment, with vRealize Operations / log insight and NSX plugged in with VIO so i'd expect a lot of API chatter

We are running vSphere 6.7 and blog post is dated Nov 2017, wonder if there is a change to vSphere which is not picked up in the script?

Has anyone any ideas to audit who is calling vSphere APIs and what they are doing?

Thanks in advance

Chris
