Results and Storyboards activity logging

Activity logging records all changes that users make. Whenever an item is created, updated, or deleted, an entry is logged to track the changes and preserve a complete history of your data. Activity in both Results and Storyboards is logged in the Results app.

How it works

What gets logged?

  • When a user creates, updates, or deletes an item, the following information is recorded in the activity log:
    • type of item
    • user that performed the action
    • date and time of the action
    • permissions changes caused by the action
    • details of the action, including a color-coded difference display

      Note

      Most activity log entries display the exact difference between the item before and after the action occurred so that you can see exactly what changed. However, changes to interpretations and storyboard configurations do not include difference information at this time.

  • When a user gains or loses Results Admin privileges, or when their access to a collection changes (i.e., if they are assigned a role for a collection or removed from a collection), this action is also recorded in the activity log

Security and access

Users can only access and view activity log information for items that they have permission to view. The activity log does not display the change history for items that users cannot access due to insufficient permissions.

Example

Renaming a storyboard

You created a storyboard and named it Content Review Global STB. After discussing the storyboard with your manager, you decide to rename it Content Review Global and ask your colleague John Doe to make the change.

When you review the activity log, you see the following entry:
