Can I find out who has opened a document in Sharepoint 2013 document library?

Question

Is it possible to use PowerShell you find out who opened a certain document in a library in a users MySite? Or can I interrogate the audit logs?
I also have Harepoint installed, but I don't know if this works to a MySite document level?

Hello Alex,
Just save the file with .ps1 and run with Powershell.
you just need to enter the URL and Path as per your liking.
$rows=@()
$url ="https://SP2013.com/"
$site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($url)
$webs = $site.AllWebs
foreach($web in $webs)
$listCollections = $web.Lists
foreach($list in $listCollections)
if ($list.BaseType.ToString() -eq "DocumentLibrary")
$dList = [Microsoft.Sharepoint.SPDocumentLibrary]$list
$items = $dList.Items
$files = $dList.CheckedOutFiles
foreach($file in $files)
$wuse = $file.DirName.Substring($web.ServerRelativeUrl.Length)
#Write ($web.Url+ "`t" + $wuse+"`/" + $file.LeafName +  "`t" + $file.CheckedOutBy.Name + "`t" + $file.TimeLastModified.ToString()+"`t" + "No Checked In Version"
$row=New-Object System.Object
$row|Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Web Url" -Value $web.Url
$row|Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "WUSE" -Value $wuse
$row|Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "File Name" -Value $file.LeafName
$row|Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Checked out by" -Value $file.CheckedOutBy.Name
$row|Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Last Modified" -Value $file.TimeLastModified.ToString()
$rows+=$row
$web.Dispose()
$site.Dispose()
$rows|Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -Path "D:\Rahul.csv"
