How to Audit Splunk User Activities?

Dear Splunk Community,

I have tried somehow to monitor user activities with Splunk. Through the documentation I found that I can analyze it through index=_audit, however, in these records there are activities that I have not carried out directly.

For example, if I apply the query: "index=_audit user=my.user | stats count by user,action" in the last 24 hours, the result will show actions like: edit_local_apps, search, list_workload_pools, list_health, quota, edit_roles, edit_roles_grantable, etc. And of those, the only activity that I performed directly was "search".

Perhaps you know how to discriminate from all the audited actions those that I carried out directly?
