Log entries usually appear within one half-hour of the user action.

Users in your organisation they collaborate using Google Calendar, Mainly these users depend on email notifications that are generated while they manage events and calendars. Such as: event invitations, event updates, RSVPs and calendars sharing can all generate email notifications that are sent to event guests or calendar subscribers.

Sometimes accidentally these notifications are triggered by third-party calendar clients or go missing (because of incorrectly configured Gmail filters, accidental email deletions, etc.) With this new feature Google Team is exposing calendar email notification logs in the Calendar audit section of Admin Console, so as a G Suite administrator, you can easily investigate issues related to calendar email notifications. Each log entry provides insights on the type of calendar notification, its sender and its recipient as well as information on the calendar client that triggered it. You can also obtain the notification’s Message-ID which can be cross-referenced with the Email Audit logs, in order to confirm whether the notification was successfully delivered to its intended recipients.

Hope with this new email notification logs in the admin console, it will make it easier for the administrator to troubleshoot issues for their users.
