File upload or file edit doesn't appear in the monitoring activity log

AFAIU, when I upload file or edit file, it should appear in security - monitoring log.  I uploaded multiple files and it still doesn't appear in monitoring. What do I do wrong?  Thank you, Evgen...

Hey Jay,

I'm Dropbox Standart
What is strange is that, I see this events in dropbox.com/events, but I don't get these events ( file_add, file_edit) in the API. /get_events

Are you creating an app to use the Dropbox API to access your files on your account?

    Yes, I do create scoped app. I check all right permissions, and I do get events of other event_types, like: 

    shared_link_create
