A method by a network device for generating audit logs. The method includes obtaining a first set of application programming interface (API) responses from an endpoint of an API, generating a profile for the endpoint of the API based on analyzing the first set of API responses, where the profile of the endpoint indicates an expected structure of API responses and expected data types associated with data fields included in API responses, obtaining a second set of API responses, using the API profile to determine, for each API response in the second set of API responses, data types of data values included in that API response, and generating an audit log that logs information regarding the data types of the data values included in the second set of API responses.
