Buyer question
What records does the EU AI Act expect for AI tool access?
The EU AI Act does not prescribe a Jira ticket format for employee AI tool access, and this page is not legal advice.
It does create audit pressure around AI governance: organizations should be able to explain which AI systems are used, who can use them, what controls apply, and what records or logs support oversight where the Act applies.

Practical answer
The EU AI Act does not prescribe a Jira ticket format for employee AI tool access, and this page is not legal advice. It does create audit pressure around AI governance: organizations should be able to explain which AI systems are used, who can use them, what controls apply, and what records or logs support oversight where the Act applies.
| Record area | Why it matters | How JSM evidence helps |
|---|---|---|
| AI system inventory | Governance starts with knowing which AI tools are approved or blocked. | Approved AI catalog and requestable tools. |
| Access approval | Reviewers need to know who authorized access and under what policy. | JSM approval, approver, decision source, policy version. |
| Human oversight and training context | The Act emphasizes governance, oversight, and AI literacy in applicable contexts. | Approval policy, requester purpose, and local guidance fields. |
| Logs and retained evidence | High-risk AI provisions include record/log concepts, subject to role and scope. | Evidence exports, governance logs, and access lifecycle records. |
| Ongoing review | Access that was appropriate once may become stale. | Recertification reviews and expiry-linked follow-up. |
Honest limitations
This page should not be used to decide whether a system is high-risk, whether a specific obligation applies, or what retention period your organization must use. Ask counsel or your compliance owner.

FAQ
Does the EU AI Act require AI Clearance?
No. AI Clearance is a tool for AI access evidence in JSM, not a legal requirement.
Does AI Clearance keep AI system logs?
No. It keeps access decision and governance evidence, not model runtime logs.
Why mention August 2026?
The European Commission public timeline says the AI Act became broadly applicable on 2 August 2026 with exceptions, and also notes later timelines for some high-risk rules.
